Piraeus, the bustling port city of Athens, is often seen as a gateway to the Greek islands. Yet it holds its own treasures, and one of them is Vibo Bistrot. Our dinner here was a delightful blend of Mediterranean flavors, warm hospitality, and the charm of dining by the sea.

The menu at Vibo Bistrot celebrates fresh, seasonal ingredients with a creative twist. Our dinner unfolded like a culinary journey:
- Starters: A refreshing Greek salad with ripe tomatoes, olives, and creamy feta, alongside bruschetta topped with local olive oil and herbs.
- Main Courses:
- Grilled sea bass, perfectly seasoned and served with lemon and roasted vegetables.
- Homemade pasta with seafood, rich in flavor and brimming with freshness.
- Dessert: A decadent chocolate soufflé paired with vanilla ice cream, the perfect sweet ending.
