A narrow counter on the corner of the little square in front of Agia Irini church. Skewers flip non-stop behind the counter, and the line, however long it looks, clears in minutes. The pita gets a red tomato sauce instead of tzatziki, which suits anyone who can't stand cucumber. It's old-school, with no fries stuffed inside, and with only a handful of outdoor seats most people eat standing on the square.
