Bread with a philosophical point of view. Traditional bakery off Syntagma sq. for top quality bread. Does delicious sandwiches, pies, cereal bars etc, all homemade.
This bakery has been thriving since 1981, with three branches in Athens and one in Vienna, Austria. Founder Dimitris Kotsaris, who passed away a few years ago leaving the business to his son, was obsessed with bread and believed it had medicinal properties. The family has a stone mill, where they grind their own superior-quality grains, in their central branch in Pangrati. They use no yeast—just their homemade sourdough starter—and the bread is still baked in a wood-burning oven. Apart from their classic wholemeal and white bread—both dense and full of flavour, with an irresistible, crackling crust—they also make a low-gluten buckwheat and zea (an ancient grain) and a chocolatey carob loaf. I also love their stuffed breads with olives and herbs or feta and tomato. Bread aside, boost your energy with a pasteli—the traditional honey and sesame seed bar, with roots in ancient Greece.
