Loukoumades · Athens

Yeast-doughnut balls deep-fried to a crisp shell, dressed in honey syrup and cinnamon, the Greek dessert sweet served hot from the pan in Athens.

Loukoumades trace their lineage to ancient Greek honey doughnuts called enkrides, written about by Athenaeus in the 3rd century AD. The modern Athens loukoumades shop is Krinos on Aiolou, fried on the same recipe and decor since 1923. Lukumades on Aiolou is the modern reinvention since the 2010s, with cream fillings and chocolate toppings. The classic order remains a portion of nine round doughnuts with honey, cinnamon and a Greek coffee on the side.
