Rea Konstantinidis

A collection of recipes patiently passed down, often orally and retraced whilst touring the taverns of the islands, Athens and Thessaloniki and in mountain places. Recipes that speak of the great exodus of the people from the Black Sea and from Smyrna that with time, have enriched Greek cuisine with additional aromas, that are quite often very simple but rich in all the aromas that the Mediterranean nature can offer. A group of masters of traditional cuisine have come together to reconstruct the dishes you found in the tavernas during your vacation or that you will certainly find if you have not yet been able to come and visit us. An authentic book describing tastes just as they are, without the ingredients being suitable for either the presentation like the very homely meals in the tavern, or the authentic Mediterranean taste.
