On a tight deadline and an interest in taking on all of the Athens’ barbecue joints, Ampersand sent out its two food obsessed design editors to risk indigestion, packed colons and their professional relationship. In order to complete this task, they decided to attempt to hit seven of Athen’s barbecue hot spots in two and a half hours. Through their bloating, bickering and meat sweats, they managed to complete their challenge successfully to bring you these results.
