Botrini's
@JeffsetterTravel-Amanda
A modern, elegant restaurant occupying a former school in the up-and-coming Chalandri district and located slightly away from the city’s tourist hotspots. The cheery entrance and intimate tree-shaded terrace come as a pleasant surprise. Here, half-Greek, half-Italian chef Ettore Botrini offers two extensive tasting menus which showcase creative Mediterranean-focused cuisine with constant references to the two countries that are part of his DNA. He always works with locally sourced ingredients and creates several dishes with a specific connection to the island of Corfu, where he spent his childhood. To elevate the gastronomic experience even further, why not dine at the exclusive chef’s table, with seats for just four guests? This restaurant is Michelin Star-rated.

@JeffsetterTravel-Amanda
Once the sun goes down, they fold back the roof of this sultry 6th floor restaurant so you can dine under the stars overlooking The Acropolis – and in summer, they relocate to the roof terrace. Classic Greek recipes are given a modern makeover and can be accompanied by Greek wine or cocktail pairings. This restaurant is Michelin Star-rated.

CTC Urban Gastronomy
@JeffsetterTravel-Amanda
A restaurant that is highly sought after during the summer months thanks to its delightful urban terrace dotted with verdant trees and bushes. Here, chef Alexandros Tsiotinis, who is well supported by his kitchen team, focuses on Mediterranean-based cuisine featuring modern techniques and meticulous presentation, showcased on a single 11-course surprise menu that is gradually revealed by staff as if they were unveiling a secret. Dishes change according to the availability of seasonal ingredients with the exception of one or two that are mainstays throughout the year, such as “sweetcorn velouté flavoured with lobster, truffle and a bergamot espuma”. A gastronomic experience in which guests should also sit back and savour some of the tasting menu’s superb wine pairings! This restaurant is Michelin Star-rated. For reservations, visit https://www.i-host.gr/Reservations/New?restaurant=618&channel=website&lang=en&fbclid=IwAR0GH8CVIHSg_5vqskJJDkrQDf3wU1o5wLfDCxX2YO3XBrD3hAhkPhSglFg

Jeffsetter Travel: Where We Create and Help Achieve your Wanderlist
Let me introduce you to Jeffsetter Travel - a journey that began as a shared passion between my partner Jeff (our namesake) and me. Together, we ignited the spark of wanderlust as if we were lighter fluid. This is how it all unfolded, just two humans living out their own personal buddy-cop movie.

It all started with our hobby blog, Jeffsetter, where we shared our travel tales, point-hacking secrets, and captivating photography. We transformed our wildest ideas, often inspired by Pinterest boards, into annual dream vacations using our points and sheer creativity.
🌍 Our OWN Journey: Nomads of the World 🌍
In 2015, we embarked on a profound adventure, the One Way Never-ending Journey (our OWN Journey), a mission to explore every corner of our planet. With our cherished wine collection in storage and most of our possessions sold, we journeyed westward, embracing the digital nomad lifestyle for a remarkable five years before returning to the US to welcome the littlest Jeffsetter.
