🇬🇷 Athens isn’t just history—it’s flavor.
Join me on my Athens Foodie Tour and taste the city the way locals do:

🥓 Soutzouk & pastourma at Miran
🧄 Varvakios Central Market & Evripidou spice street
🥙 Souvlaki or kebab (always a debate!)
🍯 Loukoumades—my favorite with pistachio praline & crushed pistachios

This is the Athens I grew up with—and the Athens I love sharing with you. 💙

Some dishes feed more than just the body—they feed the soul. 💙
For my family, spanakopita is one of those dishes. Every bite carries the love and legacy of my Aunt Dimitra, whose homemade phyllo and weekly spinach pies became a family tradition.

📖 In my latest blog post, I share her story, the recipe, and details about our new Spanakopita Cooking Classes at Athena Gourmet Market in Astoria.

💙 Filoxenia (φιλοξενία) — it’s more than hospitality, it’s the Greek art of welcoming strangers like family.

From ancient times to my own kitchen today, filoxenia has been about more than food. It’s about generosity, connection, and making people feel seen.

In my latest blog post, I share the history, heart, and ways you can bring this beautiful tradition into your own life.
