Small Greek tratoria which have a nice selection of greek traditional food. They only have 1 table so if you're lucky you can eat there otherwise, you can always take away and eat it along a canal nearby.

Not much to see normally apart from once a month when they organise a huge flea market (even bigger in the summer "biggest in europe"). Entrance cost €5 and it's definitely worth it. Take cash with you.

We're in love with the architecture of this multi-purpose building. Depending on what you're looking for, it's a restaurant, an art space or a nightclub. The restaurant doesn't have a menu, sort of an affordable gastronomic restaurant (still not cheap). The nightclub is completely different. Depending on the night, it's either techno, house or anything in between. Check their programming. They have a strict door policy. Summer is great as you can chill in their garden while partying!
