Although I ate some amazing food in Greece, both
in home-cooked meals and restaurants throughout Athens and my little island, my
favorite restaurant of all is Filoti Pizza in Agio Kyrikos, the capital of
Ikaria island.
I remember this restaurant from when I was
thirteen years old. I remember the stringiness of the cheese. I remember
climbing up three flights of stairs to the restaurant. I remember that when you
pull a slice away from the pizza the cheese stretches to infinite lengths.
It is the saltiest cheese I have ever tasted but
the best. The tomato sauce is made form the freshest Ikarian tomatoes. The
dough is soft inside and crispy on the outside, and if you order a large pizza,
there is even a tiny ball of dough in the middle, something I have never seen
on a pizza anywhere else.
If you don’t want to eat at the restaurant,
order for delivery and a girl on a motorcycle will bring it to your door.
This is the best pizza in the whole world.
Very good Pizza!
