Pikilia Traiteur

I got out of Pere Lachaise metro and fancied a quick bite before visiting the cemetery so wandered a few metres up avenue Gambetta and came across this place which is a small restaurant that has takeway food too.It's owned by a friendly Greek guy who does all the cooking himself. It's cheap and delicious and if the weather is nice you can sit outside.I had a selection of starters which I chose from the display with some warm pita bread then had his homemade moussaka accompanied by a glass of Greek wine and everything was delicious. I finished off with some ice cream and cherry compote which was so good I was practically licking the plate.

Le patron est sympa, cela contribue à rendre son resto sympathique.Mais cela manque juste de renouvellement...

A deux pas du Père Lachaise, un petit resto-traiteur qui ne paie pas de mine. Le patron est très sympa, son épouse et sa fille jamais très loin et même la maman qui, j'en suis sûre, est auteure de certaines recettes. Une cuisine familiale, servie copieusement, et délicieuse. Le patron est disponible et disposé à raconter les anecdotes de ses recettes et à faire découvrir cette cuisine mal connue. Bref, un endroit réjouissant !

This small Greek restaurant and delicatessen with outdoor seating in summer is just a few steps away from Pere Lachaise metro and cemetery. You can eat there or take away. The owner is Greek and makes the food himself and it's excellent. There is also a good choice of Greek wines and everything is very reasonably priced.

We stopped in here one afternoon for lunch after a visit to Père Lachaise and came across this Traiteur that sold excellent authentic Greek food. Once we stepped in the smell was fantastic and we knew we had to try this place out. The owner and operator is a super friendly Greek-French guy and speaks English very well. The aroma was a really fantastic moussaka that is made daily. (actually its made the day before so it can be at its best and the flavours can come together) We had another pasta dish that was excellent and had a lot of different appetizers and some nice big olives and finished it off with a spot of wine. He also gave us a good tip to check out the authentic Fromagerie a few meters closer to the boulevard that's run by a very dear octogenarian. (doesn't speak English but we were able to get by okay with our paltry French) It was all very excellent.
