Kostas

In the heart of the Plaka in Athens there used to be a fast food joint called "Kostas". A picture of this appears at the left. It used to serve the best gyros and souvlakia in town.

I suspect that since this picture was taken the Plaka has changed and Kosta - who was no spring chicken then is probably no longer with us and it is highly unlikely that this hole in the wall will be there either.

Still, someone has to give praise to what I think of as a real historical monument.

Thanks to Kostas gyros and souvlakia I managed to eat well and cheaply. I wonder what has become of him and his hole in the wall store?
