Had a fantastic dining experience at Andros last night. The cocktails were so tasty (Midas touch and golden age). My boyfriend loved the beets and feta he finished the whole plate! The Avgolemono took me straight to Greece. The lamb chops and bones were a highlight for me. The sea bream was divine. The baklava froyo was one of the best desserts I’ve had in the city. WILL be returning to Andros very soon :).
