1 Review on “Yi ("Earth")”
Offering many raw vegan options, Yi (it’s the Greek word for Earth in English) is one of Athens more upscale eateries. With an ample covered outdoor seating area and cozy cushioned indoor decor set inside a large, Pottery Barn-esque interior, you’ll feel inspired to slowly sip a glass of wine or cup of tea, while perusing their menu.
This restaurant is set just outside of Athens proper so you may want to catch a ride with a friend or put on your walking shoes. But it’s in a cool, semi-fancy, shopping area. So perhaps plan for a stroll before or after dinner!
My friend, Dimitra and I shared the vegetable roll and stuffed mushrooms as appetizers. I indulged in a cacao mocha latte before the raw zucchini noodle dish arrived. And Dimitra had the Caesar salad.
The food was all fantastic. Each dish popped with flavor and the service was quite good. I believe they have menus in English but not to worry, many locals speak English (particularly those around 30 years or younger).
Be prepared for people smoking cigarettes in the patio area! If you’re not a smoker (like me) it can be a bit uncomfortable but I quickly learned that many big cities in Europe have a major smoking culture. So pretty much any public venue that offers outdoor seating may also come with some serious smokers.
