About A Little Taste of Home

A Little Taste of Home was founded in July 2016 by Ahmad Alssaleh, a Bedouin from Palmyra in Syria. It began in Gazi and now sits on Astiggos Street, a few steps from Monastiraki Square, with tables inside and out. The kitchen cooks global dishes and familiar favourites, reimagined. Our advice: come hungry and share several plates.
