Tsakalof street boasts many cafes which turn into trendy bars in the evening. A MUST to visit in Kolonaki in AThens. Places I recommend are Da Capo, T5, Ruins, Minnie the Moocher and all the rest around them. If you want to grab a great sandwich go to Everest at the top of Tsakalof street and corner with Iraklitou street. Also good skewers (souvlaki) are served at COPANA street food restaurant
