"Leilim Lei" is more than a restaurant. This place works apart from restaurant also as a collective-cultural centre made from people from different countries of the east. Specialized mainly in turkish cuisine, you can also find greek, arabic and kurdish dishes on very low prices and the best of qualities. If you chose to visit, maybe reservation is a good idea as it is small and usually crowded!

Essentials

If you want to buy meat and cook it yourself try Meatmarket Roussos. More than 10 years in the neighbourhood, the market has passed from father to son and I can reassure you they bring the best quality in meat in relatively low prices.

Drinks & Nightlife

Six d.o.g.s is a bar but also holds a live stage with special events varying from local or international dj's. Situated in the historic city centre (psiri-monastiraki) surely is worth the visit even in hot summer days as it offers special cocktails at an island style lounge back yard.
