Fare #19, Athens

Fare explores the tastes, textures, and triumphs of a single city in each issue.

In this issue: Athens

Athens' ancient soul is the stuff of legend, but the modern city holds its own marvels, From the glistening port to its storied tavernas and lively kafenia, the Greek capital is more spirited than ever. Highlights include meatballs and cold beers at a hidden rooftop canteen, a bittersweet history of the city's orange trees, a coffee break with members of the Panathinaikos women's football team, Savoury Greek pies at a beloved century old bakery, the city's few remaining dairy bars, and long nights of rebetiko and dancing in an old Exarchia house-turned-bar.
