Christmas 2010, the weekend in Athens, where shall we eat?
Finally got the scoop on who will be open and who will be closed amongst some of my favorite Athens’ restaurants and tavernas. For the best Christmas weekend dining, looks like Pagrati is the place to be, since our preferred picks around Syntagma and Thisseio will be closed on Christmas Eve for dinner as well as on Christmas Day.
Below you’ll find several great choices for Friday night, December 24, 2010, Christmas Eve and for Christmas Day. The options range from quick and casual and super budget friendly, to typically Greek taverna dining to a great night out with live Greek music in a totally local environment.
Penelope and Ministires, 130 Ymittou, Pagrati, Telephone 2107568555
What better way to spend part of your Christmas holiday in Athens than enjoying Greek mezedes (small plates) along with live Greek music. They fill up fast, so you must make a reservation. Call 210-75-68-555 and ask for Fotis to book a table.

One of my three Greek loves, not only do they have a terrific mixed grill for 2 that easily feeds4, they also do a tasty broiled chicken. If you’ve got the space and want to dine at home, they’ll also deliver so you can enjoy Christmas day in the comfort of home.
