If you have not walked around Aeolou street in the past few months, it's time to schedule it. You will come across flavors, colors and choices that excite. We will not talk about restaurants or bars serving food, but for those miniature shops that have dealt with the concept of fast food, in terms of quality of raw materials and vegan or vegetarian variety.

If you see a long que in front of a shop, at noon or night, somewhere in the middle of Aeolos str, you have reached Falafellas (Aeolou 51). With vegetarian options, also suitable for vegan, this shop manufactures the most popular chickpeas in Athens. Do not expect to sit somewhere. Just order your own falafel and keep walking.

Continuing in an oriental or general Arabic mood we arrive at the Feyrouz. Right of the conjunction, Karoris 23 and Aeolou, this shop prepares for its customers not only vegetarian pies, lasagna with Syrian flavor or salads, but also colorful vegan and non- soups and pre-dried nests stuffed with meat or vegetables. The tasty combinations resemble gourmet dishes, unlike their prices.

Before we leave Aeolou we can’t miss the Oven Sesame (Aeolou 17). Round sesame breads filled in with imagination, in a great variety. Salty and sweet. Plus, cheap! Perhaps the idea began with the stuffed sesame breads we see in many ovens in recent years, which are usually stuffed with philadelphia cheese and turkey. So the inspirer went a little further and thought to give another shape to your favorite sesame bread so that on the one hand there is plenty of space for what your appetite attracts.

Last but not least, if you are asking for a spicy note on your walk, you should climb a little higher. On a secret road between Mitropoleos and Ermou, Petraki street a few meters from Syntagma Square, is located in a colorful corner of Taqueria Maya Athens (Petrakis 10).Compose your own dish with meat, fish and vegetables inspired by Mexico and Latin America. Two of the things that impress are the aesthetic of the place - imaginative and simple - as well as the plate with the fillet of white fish.
