Sinialo — Restaurant in Municipality of Patras

The place was strange. You go by a staircase to the second floor. There you can find an empty room with tables and all, but no people. Then a server comes an tells you that you have to use a lift to get to the third floor where the actual thing is. It is an open terrace with a great view of the castle.

This is Greece, this is Patras, this is cult - you won’t forget this day your...

The food was great, the presentation was as well very nice. A couple of peculiarities here, for example you have to write down your order yourself and if you dont explicitly ask it, they dont bring even water. This unfortunately happens because of the usual patronage from college students that tend to go for the cheapest option.
