When Lord Byron travelled to Greece, in the early nineteenth century, he encountered bandits “on the hills / That look along Epirus’ valleys,” he wrote, “Where Freedom still at moments rallies, / And pays in blood Oppression’s ills.” The Klephts, as these outlaws were called, robbed travellers blind and, more charmingly, helped overthrow four hundred years of Turkish tyranny. Merakia— officially called Merakia Greek MountainThief Spithouse + Steak—is a new Flatiron restaurant that celebrates the Klephts (or, as the owners would have it, Greek MountainThieves) and their love of spit-roasted lamb.
