Experience description
Tickle your tastebuds with this informed and entertaining tour excursion that will introduce you to authentic Greek cuisine. Beginning with the local market, which operates daily serving delicious home-cooked fare to the citizens of Athens, you’ll hear vendors hawking their wares and bartering with their customers, and taste meats, cheeses, fish, bread and wine, as well as fresh fruit.
Adjacent to the market are several speciality food shops, where you’ll find colourful piles of spices, as well as abundant nuts, dates, figs and much more besides. This guide to the fascinating culinary history of Athens incorporates tasting, and Tinggly suggests you bring along at least one empty shopping bag, because you’ll no doubt be bringing plenty of treats home.
Highlights:
- An enthralling introduction to the history, techniques and traditions of Greek food culture
