    some narrow street in central Athens, with lots of small restaurants, cute cats and motorbikes

    it's very noisy and some car just beeped! Are Rome and London like that as well? Turned out I've become extremely sensitive to sound after 2yr in Helsinki..

    Well the center of Athens is definitely crowded, it's probably the most crowded place I've been at in my life

    How long are you staying? I suggest you to have a tour out of the center anyways, the Peiraias (Pireo), the port, is always a nice see, and if you like the sea you should go south towards Glyphada. There are really many places to see, but if you look for good food the most, you should head north of the city (Kifisia, Marosi, etc) and look for a grill house and ask lamb... that's where I had the best lamb in my life.

    It is kind of scary how fast you have become accustomed to our way of life. I have nothing but love towards an immigrant like you!

    my dreaded trip is done! Some specials:


    Very spicy Indian lamb (sauce name starts with V) with sweet rice:

    (couldn't finish, 2 rices are like 4 person portion)

    Authentic HK food, first the soup:


    Then crabs and crab eggs, couldn't finish either, and real crabs smell funny. I still prefer the shellless frozen strips


    The last is lamb Mantis from a Greek restaurant (finally found this! )


    Too bad it's not spicy as I imagined, but great nevertheless


    Last meal - had to settle with mussels because nobody sell those highly praised eels in ancient Greek text:


    After-meal desserts: only 1 or 1.5 euro for all!

    Are you referring to 1L cup of coffee, pasta filling entire pot or burger as big as human head? haven't seen those here.

    BTW I failed to find any goat balls mentioned in American Greek cuisine. The show said it's famous!

    Does anyone here like to eat Salmon? I like to stick lemon and lime juice on mine and parsley flakes and some salt.

    Interesting! Good to see you again, AoRun. I was afraid that the beautiful women of the Philippines have stolen you from us.

    This is what we call Porchetta, even though I'm sure that the seasoning you have is different

    delicious food anyways
