Feyrouz

Feyrouz, the family matriarch and head chef.

Καρόρη 23 και, Agathonos 1, Athina 105 51, Greece

Feyrouz, a small Mediterranean bakery and restaurant conveniently located a 15-minute walk away from the Acropolis, was established in 2014 by a family of five. The name may ring a bell—yes, Feyrouz is a renowned Lebanese singer, but it’s also the name of the family’s matriarch, who doubles as the main cook. The restaurant serves delectable Levantine street food that honors their Lebanese and Turkish origins, like Bosphorus rice and peinirli pies. Don’t miss the lahmajoun (flat-bread with minced meat) and the pistachio baklava. —Jeanne Malle
