Blue Fish Athens

Plaka, with its meandering alleys, blooming jacarandas and rich history, reeks of charm and character but its gastronomic offerings have remained, until recently, woefully below par –restricted to tourist traps serving lurid fuchsia tarama and tired staples. With more discerning tourists and a new postcrisis consciousness taking hold on young, creative restaurateurs, luckily, that is a thing of the past and newcomers like Blue Fish have dared to break free from the mould by introducing a fish restaurant in a saturated meat environment.
