Description
A Greek wine shop two doors off Banker’s Lane, set below street level in a cool, pitch-smelling cellar. Light filters down through a pavement grate. Run by Stavros, recognizable by his red cap, who serves a specialty “Hangover Mercy” coffee with a raw egg beaten in and keeps tabs in chalk on the barrel lids.
Notable Features
- A pavement grate is the shop’s only natural light source.
- Two Greek coasting captains were found here mid-backgammon, arguing about the wind and about a brig that had arrived carrying a mysterious crate belonging to a dead man.
Connections
