Blink and you’d miss it, the Steel Bird is one of those rare finds that leads to something akin to a love affair once discovered. Discreet during the winter, this is the perfect place for a fireside tryst, whilst the warmer parts of the year trumpet the opening of a magnificent secluded garden. Full of staff from the American embassy during the week, the place is given back to the locals at the weekend and is well worth the treck up the hill. Recommended is their cheese-covered kepta duona, a real treat with a couple of ice-cold beers.
