One week in Greece gave me so much inspiration for this amazing, fresh and flavorful food, in every tavern, especially in Athens the vegan and vegetarian selection is just so big and colorful, no need to go to special restaurants and its great way to try all the local flavors, cheap , its a definitely a place to miss once you left it.
