Be or not to BE (gastronomic version in sunny Hellas)

The second time in BE and obaraza through the window? ‍♀️

Well, so it turns out. And if, on the first visit, we just could not open the door, then today, entering from the other side the streets I saw all the same open fly decided not change traditions. The window was huge open glass doors leading from the premises to the incredibly quiet for city ​​center spontaneous verandah. It means all the same BE.

I was in a hurry to this place without really having arrived in Thessaloniki. AT the moment of planning the Greek weekend, until the departure dates are agreed and buying a ticket – I knew exactly where I would have breakfast or lunch. AT the heart of the city when viewed from the embankment on the square Aristotle and go to “Electra Hotel”, we turn left and move down the street Mitropoleos movement. Slowly we pass the shopping center “Notos Gallery”, immediately after it on the right hand corner will be “The Excelsior Hotel Thessaloniki “. And here, on the right, turned to the right on the street Komninon, which opens view of the covenant window.

Not more than two years have passed since the first dinner in Be and how nice to be in familiar interiors, all the same turquoise sofas with gray cushions along the wall, wooden tables and chairs on metal legs and a series hanging from the ceiling light bulbs, and in the depths of the bar counter there is a lighted sign. And still quiet there … 200 meters to a busy square, and you sit in the shade of the trees and pick up a stunning Italian salad with arugula, Prosciutto, orange and mozzarella, on cheese bread. Licked their lips? I also.

Food. This is the second reason for my movements around the world. As says Mom on another trip: “Do you eat fly?”

Ic word about living in the menu dishes – institution can not be called a representative of the true local cuisine. The menu will be and American pancakes and a delicious set of 4 toasts with pasta from avocado, salmon and cucumber, nut paste with pomegranate, as well as fresh strawberry and banana slices. Traditional Italian Pasta with soft cheese, fragrant tomatoes and basil adjoins in menu with grilled beef and asparagus. And on dessert boldly choose apple pie with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce or just a glassfrape, or maybe even a cold cappuccino, which will tame the city heat

And at this very moment you completely forget about the size of the Greek portions. Called “feed three or try everything.” I do not cease to enjoy Mediterranean hospitality. Whether Greece or Cyprus – always the same – a lot and tasty.

My lunch, consisting of salad, pasta and cold cappuccino cost no more than 25 euros. By the way, there is no room for dinner. Therefore, I highly recommend before placing your order to evaluate my ability for sorry will not leave eaten

Another nice thing about visiting Greek places is the opportunity not to rush, but to fully enjoy the cooked dish. Nobody will say a word if you sit a couple of hours with a cup of coffee and dessert, contemplating the bustle of the city. Oh yeah and Do not be surprised if on your desk immediately after placing the order there will be a glass of water. This is another small Greek tradition. institutions.

It is when I come to Greece that every time I learn to be here and now. and enjoy the moment.

You can get to Aristotle Square by buses №3, №8 and №39. from different sides of the city. In May 2018, the fare to one side was 1 euro. Tickets can be purchased in the machine the bus. Be careful – automatic delivery is not issued.

And travel with taste!
