Dining "Event" in Athens

On Wednesday evening, we arrived in Athens, hungry and exhausted after nearly 24 hours of travel (including a tortuous 6-hour layover in London Luton airport). Upon checking in, we asked the guy working the desk at the hotel where we might be able to find an authentic (and nearby) bite to eat, and he vehemently recommended a restaurant called Event. What ensued can be described as nothing less than the classic experience of two overtired people in a foreign city. We walked the narrow winding streets for nearly an hour trying to decipher the names of the roads and locate the restaurant. We asked numerous people for directions, only to hopefully turn down an alley and find a row of enticing restaurants by other names. We were about to give up when we finally stumbled upon it. And we're so thankful we persisted - the meal was outstanding. We had delicious appetizers, including a salad with the freshest feta cheese imaginable and ripe summer tomatoes, and a shrimp dish with homemade tomato sauce. The entrees were fantastic as well - white fish from the Aegean Sea and rack of lamb with baby artichokes. Thadd declared it the best and most flavorful rack of lamb he's ever tasted! The white wine (a specialty in Greece) and Baklava dessert rounded out this fabulous introduction to Greek cuisine. For anyone who is in Athens in the near future, this restaurant is a must - and be sure to ask for Alex, the waiter. He'll take good care of you!
