drama, history and poetry…cooking is also an art worth writing about!
The delicious Greek cuisine is a Mediterranean-style
combination of Italian, Balkan, Turkish, and Levantine culinary delights.
Rich in the strong local olive oil,
herbs like oregano, vegetables, seafood, wine, and various meats,
it is one of the world’s healthiest and mouthwatering cuisines.
Either dining at an upscale restaurant or enjoying street food,
local dishes provide an unforgettable experience for travelers.
