Lunch at an ouzeria in Athens. Turned out to be a bit of a working-men's eatery, so the food was basic but good (and very fairly priced IIRC).

Fried shrimps.

Rice with clams (too greasy, and a bit stingy). It had tomato, chili, oregano, dill, garlic and onion.

Fried calamari and potato balls. They have a bit of a mushy texture inside, but nice flavor and crisp exterior. And everything which is made of fried potatoes goes well with some lemon.

More fried balls - this time zucchini and some feta. Great flavor with herbs (mostly dill) and surprisingly fenugreek.

Plenty of local lager, refreshing and light.

Coffee, and complimentary semolina halva with cinnamon, maybe some orange.
