Fare Magazine Issue 19 (Athens) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. Athens’ ancient soul is the stuff of legend, but the modern city holds its own marvels. From the glistening port to its storied tavernas and lively kafenia, the Greek capital is more spirited than ever.
Fare magazine is a publication exploring the heart of a city through its food, history, and community. Fare magazine is published bi-annually. Fare introduces its readers to a single city and lets its locals do the talking: taking you down backstreets and through forgotten histories, exploring neighborhoods and local institutions, and doing more than just taste the food on offer. The result is a portrait of city life and culture more thoughtful and nuanced than the dreamy conjurings that typify touristic material. Fare magazine is not a conventional travel guide; it is designed to excite and inspire, but also to educate, and each issue begins with a crash course in the city’s phenomena of place, and ends with a full glossary of local terms and histories referenced within.
Content
- Step down into the koutoukia, Athens’s traditional basement eateries, for long nights of retsina and rebetiko.
- Join a running route through the mountains of Ymittos, where a local shares stories of the Athens marathon both ancient and modern.
- Head to Piraeus for lunch at a bakalotaverna – a grocery store-taverna mashup – that’s been serving port workers for over one hundred years.
- Try house-made yoghurt drenched in honey at one of the city’s last remaining dairy bars.
