When visiting the Danforth, it is imperative to enjoy some loukoumades. The humble honey puff might not be fancy, but at Athens Pastries, the surface-fried, honey-soaked, cinnamon-dusted dough balls are proof that simplicity is addictive. Try to eat just one. We dare you. Everything, from the spanakopita (spinach pie) to the tiropita (cheese pie), is made using original northern Greek recipes that have been passed down in the owner's family for years. More so, all Athens's products are made from scratch, in-house, using only fresh and simple ingredients that, whenever possible, are locally sourced.
