Rediviva Cucina Povera

Thessaloniki


This earthy Ano Poli restaurant sources many of its ingredients locally and from its own back garden. Using what's in season, it serves a diverse range of Greek dishes with particular emphasis on the food of Crete and Lesvos. Try the Cretan herb pita (pie), sun-dried fish and fantastic salads, then perhaps buy a jar of their marmalade to take away.
