A collection of recipes that have been passed down patiently, often orally, as one wandered through the taverns of the islands, Athens, and Thessaloniki, as well as in mountainous areas. Recipes that speak of the great uprooting of the Greek people from the Black Sea and Smyrna, which over time have enriched Greek cuisine with additional aromas, often very simple but rich in all the scents that the Mediterranean nature can offer.

A group of masters of traditional cuisine has gathered to recreate the dishes you found in the taverns during your holidays or that you will certainly find if you have not been able to visit us yet. An authentic book that describes the flavors just as they are, without the ingredients being suitable for presentation, like the very home-cooked meals in the taverns, nor for the taste of authentic Mediterranean cuisine.
