  1. A

    Yiorgos Hatziparaskos

    One of the last traditional filo masters in all of Greece, Yiorgos Hatziparaskos still makes super-fine pastry by hand in his traditional workshop. The highlight is when he throws the dough into a giant bubble before stretching it over a huge table. His wife Katerina encourages passers-by to watch the spectacle and try some of best baklava and kataifi they will ever eat.

    Agapitos

    This posh patisserie is the place to go for a taste of the Continent. Its cakes, fruit concoctions and profiterols (chocolate pudding with a crunchy base and white cream) are all excellent. Try the superlative efrosini chocolate cake, or smudge your fingers on the delicious mini-eclairs.

    Mona Liza

    At Mona Liza, around the corner from the Loggia, Nikos Skartsilakis is legendary for his 'crema' ice cream made from sheep's milk, as well as his excellent sweets. Try the galaktoboureko (custard pastries), the walnut pie, or vrahaki, chocolate with almonds.
