Athens
Rethink the Cliché:
You’ll still find stuffed grape leaves in the typical taverna, but leave room for cutting-edge meals by Athens’ new chefs.
Book a Table: In the chic Kolonaki district, 48 reshapes typical Greek dishes like stuffed tomatoes into sushi-like tidbits (48therestaurant.com; entrées from $19). Nearby Varoulko has a rooftop view of the Acropolis but inventive seafood is what really draws attention (varoulko.gr/uk; 3-course menu for $75). Milos serves pristine seafood, like red-fleshed wild Aegean oysters (milos.ca; entrées from $26).
Find a Room:
The Grande Bretagne, the grand dame of Athens hotels, anchoring Constitution Square, has been refurbished
(grandebretagne.gr; rooms from $340/night). For a modern feel,
check into the Fresh Hotel (freshhotel.gr; rooms from $189/night).
