Situated in the hip and buzzy Tiong Bahru neighbourhood, this charming restaurant and taverna draws upon the rich culinary history of the Eastern Mediterranean basin to conjure up scrumptious dishes that will leave you wanting more. Authenticity is the foundation of BAKALAKI's cooking, and the eatery prides itself on importing traditional ingredients from the motherland to incorporate into their meals.

Start your meal with any one of the restaurant's mouthwatering dips. The classic Tzatziki is one of our favourites, featuring cucumbers, garlic, and olive oil folded into a refreshing light Greek yoghurt. Other winning appetisers include the Kalamari Tiganito, where a straightforward dish of crispy fried squid is enhanced with a dash of lemon juice. Indecisive diners should opt for the Mixed Grilled Meat Platter, available for sharing between two to four diners. Here, you get to sample all the best grilled meats, which include beef and kebab skewers, chicken yiros, lamb chops, meatballs, and beef sausages.

Love what you ate? Why not take home a slice of Greek heritage and culture from the adjoining deli? The array of delicacies up for sale include cheeses, olives, honey, pulses, sauces, herbs, traditional sweets, and Greek wines. When done well, Greek cuisine can be downright phenomenal. So expect nothing less when you dine at BAKALAKI Greek Taverna - you have our word for it. (Jun 2017)
