Maniátiko
Athens, Greece
The read// why locals go
Maniátiko cooks the food of the Mani, the stony middle peninsula of the Peloponnese, from an address on Kydathinaion in the middle of Plaka. Mani food is shaped by hard country: cured and slow-cooked meats, wild greens, hard sheep's cheeses, olive oil doing most of the heavy lifting. Around €24 a head. Plaka is not where Athenians normally look for a serious meal, which makes a kitchen with an actual regional argument stand out here more than it would anywhere else in the city. Ask what the Mani version of a dish is before defaulting to the familiar one.
