Must-Taste: The Top Food Artisans in the Cyclades, Greece for 2024

The 17th Gastronomos Quality Awards honored the best producers from the Cyclades for 2024 in a ceremony hosted at the iconic Apollon Theater, Syros, which celebrates its 160th anniversary. This year’s awards were dedicated to Cycladic producers. At a crucial historical crossroads for the Cyclades, where various circumstances have reduced engagement with agriculture and production, the Gastronomos Awards shed light on the exceptions. These are the people who continue to toil with the land and their animals, produce cheeses and traditional cured meats, cultivate local varieties, and fiercely protect the Cycladic way of life. Mykonos Koukas Cheesemakers of Mykonos Two cheesemakers were recognized and awarded by Gastronomos this year after a blind tasting; one is located on the island of winds, Mykonos: Tyrokomeio Mykonou Koukas. They produce myzithra, which the old Mykonians used to call kopanisti, along with the traditional Mykonian tyrovolia and xinotyro, all made with their own fresh milk from their farm in Ano Mera. Koukas - Mykonos | © Angelos Giotopoulos Dimitris Rousounelos, the figure preserving the ‘Old Mykonos’ Additionally, an honorary award was given to Dimitris Rousounelos, a passionate Mykonian who has extensively researched the island’s culinary traditions. Through his books, seminars and other efforts, he strives to preserve the essence of Old Mykonos. He recently completed an in-depth study on Cycladic cheesemaking for the Ministry of Culture, documenting it for inclusion in Greece’s National Intangible Cultural Heritage Registry and UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list. He is considered a teacher by chefs and producers across the Cyclades. Rousounelos - Mykonos | © Angelos Giotopoulos Santorini Domaine Sigalas  A special award for contributions to the wine industry was given to Paris Sigalas from Santorini. Since 1998, Domaine Sigalas has led the island into a new era with its wines. Paris Sigalas is the cornerstone of Santorini’s modern wine history. Nomikos Estate Local Products Santorini also took home another award for traditional production, given to the Nomikos Estate, which produces local delicacies including fava beans, pistachios and tomatoes from native seeds with minimal intervention. Paros Moraitis Winery The wine production award went to the Moraitis Winery on Paros, the island’s oldest and one of Greece’s most historic wineries, founded in 1910 by the great-grandfather of the current owner. The winery continues to produce modern wines from the same varieties cultivated by the family for generations, which have since been recognized with a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) label, the only PDO wines in the Cyclades outside of Santorini. Tinos Rouggeri Wild Artichokes From Tinos, farmer Favianos Rouggeris received recognition for his persistence in cultivating wild artichokes, battling against the island’s water shortages and supplying the entire island with his produce. Sifnos Theodorou Pastry Shop for their Amigdalota The Theodorou pastry shop on Sifnos was honored for its exceptional traditional amigdalota (almond sweets) with the Evi Voutsina Award, given annually to producers of standout local products. Vasilodimos Theodorou and his 90-year-old mother, Mrs Katerina, have handmade tens of thousands of these sweets in their workshop with its sea-blue doors in Artemonas. Nikos & Yiannis Lebesis Ceramics Sifnos also saw recognition for the Lebesis family of ceramists, with an award for traditional arts. High in Artemonas lies one of the oldest pottery workshops in Sifnos, operated by Nikos Lebesis and his father Yiannis. Four generations of the Lebesis family have made history in Sifnian pottery. Amorgos Hozoviotissa Fishing Association The sustainability award was given to the Hozoviotissa Professional Fishermen’s Association of Amorgos, which has been fighting to protect the island’s seas for years. The local fishermen have taken bold initiatives to ensure a healthy marine environment rich in fish, proposing to close the island’s three richest fishing grounds, including Katapola Bay, and halting fishing during the breeding season. They’ve also adopted recyclable nets and are working to clean the island’s coasts of plastic. Syros Prekas Grocery in Ermoupoli The award for best store went to the Prekas Grocery in Ermoupoli, a true ark of Cycladic production. From loukoumia and wines to louza, kopanisti and melitzanaki jam, over half of the store’s products come from the Cyclades. For 32 years, this grocery store has been a champion of localism. Prekas Grocery - Syros | © Konstantinos Tsakalidis Serifos Frygana Wild Lavender Honey The award for honey production was given to beekeeper Nikos Kokolakis from Serifos for his wild lavender Frygana Honey, a rare variety now threatened with extinction after a summer fire ravaged a third of the island, destroying many of its unique lavender and thyme bee pastures. Naxos Pittaras Cheesemakers The second cheesemaker awarded by Gastronomos after a blind tasting is Pittaras Dairy from Naxos. Their cheeses, available at major supermarkets, are certified for good animal management, animal welfare, and the use of non-GMO feed. Their specialty is Naxos’ PDO graviera cheese. The 12-month-aged version, with its rare complexity, stood out during the experts’ tasting. Andros Tridimas Brothers Charcuterie The charcuterie production award took us to Andros and the family-run Tridimas Charcuterie, which produces louza and other Cycladic cured meats without preservatives. Their products have a chewy texture, a rich, sweet, and intense flavor with minimal fat. Evangelia Roussou - Amorgos | © Michael Pappas Special Award: The 5 Cycladic Women Chefs Finally, a very special award was presented for the first time in memory of restaurant owner George Hatzigiannakis, creator of the iconic Selene restaurant on Santorini. He was the first to showcase fava and local tomatoes in his dishes and advocate for the connection between local production and gastronomy.  In his honor, Gastronomos celebrated five Cycladic women chefs who follow the same path, using the best local ingredients in their cooking. These women are Margarita Kalogeropoulou from Anafi, Rinio Dekavalla from Folegandros, Maria Anagnostopoulou-Katsouna from Paros, Evangelia Roussou from Amorgos, and Matina Koumerta from Naxos.  These women represent all the taverna owners and cooks who have kept tavernas and cafes alive, working tirelessly day and night over frying pans, pots and grills, peeling tons of potatoes and zucchinis, and making countless pies by hand. We owe a debt of gratitude to these unsung heroines of traditional cooking. Modern chefs, restaurateurs, producers and the Cyclades owe them much. Special thanks go to the President of the Hellenic Parliament Konstantinos Tasoulas, who honored us with his presence. Also, we would like to warmly thank the Mayor of Syros - Ermoupolis Alexandros Athanasiou, the Deputy Mayor for Culture Thomai Mendrinou, for her valuable help and hospitality at the Apollo Theater, as well as to the Deputy Mayor of Tourism, Christianna Papitsi. Special thanks to the Historical Museum of Ermoupolis for the design of this year's award. We would like to take the opportunity to thank our sponsors for their warm support: Lidl Hellas, Municipality of Syros - Ermoupolis, Chamber of Cyclades, Aegean Cuisine, Hermoupolis Heritage, hoper, Nespresso Professional, Athens International Airport "Eleftherios Venizelos", Kotsovolos - Dixons South East Europe, AQUA Carpatica, Blue Star Ferries. Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to the volunteers of the Vocational Training Public School of Syros, the Department of Product and Systems Design Engineering of the Polytechnic School of the University of the Aegean, and all the other volunteers for their valuable presence and contribution.

Zorba the Greek Project – The textiles of Palaiochori

Zorba the Greek, the hero of author Kazantzakis “lives” in Eastern Halkidiki! White houses. Red roofs. Chimneys all around. The winter is cold in Giorgis’ village. It starts in September and until June it has run its course. Thick covers. Woven. Traditional wool rugs. Blankets. All in warm and bright colours. Rugs hanging on the wall. They protect people from the cold and shield the house from damages and dust. Textiles of silk and cotton are covering the beds. On the floor there are woven kilims and carpets. Calligraphic designs. Bright, Yellow, Red, Orange, Brown. As if the floor is laden with flowers. Like gardens blooming at your feet. Masterpieces of craftsmanship and patience. Intricate designs. Images. Beauty. A floor garden in full bloom. And bedding on the furniture. Silk or cotton – loom-woven, too. Fine work. And towels in the kitchen. Humble, but clean houses, fully tidy and packed with women’s dowries. Small, but ornamented salons, full of the light and colour of the tradition of Palaiochori. Beds barely fitting one person, hard and uncomfortable divans, but covered and adorned with intricate textile collections. The textiles of Palaiochori, the textiles of Giorgis and other heroes and heroines of Palaiochori’s everyday life, are part of our historical continuity.

Eco-Friendly Businesses: A Journey Towards Zero Waste

A new wave of Greek eco-conscious entrepreneurs is paving the way for a greener, more sustainable future. These young professionals are investing in zero-waste production practices, striving to minimise their environmental footprint by reducing waste and reusing raw materials through innovative recycling and upcycling methods. Supported by initiatives like The People’s Trust, these small businesses are not only helping the environment but also creating unique, premium products such as handmade bags, curtains, cushions, clothes, accessories, and even soaps. These trailblazing businesses deserve our attention and support, as they embody the essence of responsible consumption. One shining example is BlueCycle, a groundbreaking initiative under the Aikaterini Laskaridis Foundation. BlueCycle aims to tackle the mounting issue of marine plastic waste, from shipping and fishing activities. By transforming discarded plastic into high-quality materials, they offer sustainable solutions to the problem of sea waste, promoting a circular economy where nothing goes to waste. This holistic approach not only cleans up our seas but also reintegrates the recycled materials into industries, proving that innovation and sustainability can go hand in hand. Another standout initiative is Recycledin, a small recycling studio based on the island of Kos, Greece. Dedicated to saving plastic waste from landfills and beaches, Recycledin designs and crafts handmade home décor items, accessories, and furniture. By repurposing washed-up plastic, this passionate team is halting the effects of plastic pollution while offering unique products that are as stylish as they are sustainable. Greece is also home to 3QUARTERS, a design brand, based in Athens, who create fashionable bags by upcycling urban synthetic fabrics (scraps or discarded materials from the city itself, such as advertising banners and awnings). The company transforms discarded materials into durable and stylish accessories, adhering to the principle of zero waste and proving that waste materials can be turned into functional and elegant products. For those passionate about sustainable innovation, PHEE  is leading the way as a Greek greentech startup specializing in non-toxic, low-carbon composite materials. By upcycling bio-residues that are often discarded or sent to landfills, PHEE creates eco-friendly alternatives for the interior design and furniture industries. Their groundbreaking technology transforms waste into novel bio-composites, offering a more natural and healthier option than traditional fossil-based materials. PHEE's vision is to turn today's waste into tomorrow’s sustainable raw materials, a mission that earned them a spot on Forbes' 30 Under 30 Europe Industry list in 2018. The Botanical Project, a natural dye studio and atelier in Athens, run by Theodora Androni, holds a place in Greece's vibrant eco-friendly business scene. Specialising in sustainable fashion, Theodora hand-dyes each textile using natural materials like plants, minerals, and food waste. Inspired by her rural upbringing and commitment to environmental protection, her creations are timeless, ethically made, and sourced from eco-conscious Greek textile industries. This one-of-a-kind studio exemplifies how art, nature, and sustainability can beautifully intertwine to create unique, handcrafted pieces that stand the test of time. Lastly, initiatives like Think Sea and Salty Bag are turning decommissioned windsurf and yacht sails into stylish, durable bags. Based on the islands of Paros and Corfu respectively, these businesses contribute to a circular economy by repurposing discarded materials from the nautical industry into high-quality, functional items. These inspiring Greek businesses are at the forefront of the zero-waste movement, showing us that sustainability is not only possible but also incredibly stylish. Whether it’s turning plastic waste into fashionable accessories or creating new materials from the sea, these eco-friendly ventures are changing the way we think about consumption. By supporting these local initiatives, we can all play a part in reducing waste and protecting the environment—one eco-conscious purchase at a time.

A Veggie Adventure Through Greece: Your guide to plant-based Greek flavours

Although Greek cuisine is often associated with meat, it also offers a rich selection of vegetarian dishes. Greek cooking is known for using high-quality ingredients, aromatic herbs and spices, and, of course, the famous Greek olive oil. This cuisine thrives on seasonal vegetables, fruits, legumes, and grains, making it ideal for vegetarians and vegans alike. Here's a selection of vegetarian Greek dishes that can satisfy even the steadiest meat-eaters among you. Starting with appetizers, Choriatiki, is a traditional salad made with tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, feta cheese, olives, olive oil, and oregano. Another famous salad is the Cretan Dakos, featuring a round water-dampened barley rusk and topped with chopped tomatoes, crumbled feta or myzithra, olive slices, capers, and oregano. For side dishes or mezedes, try fried or grilled vegetables like courgette patties. Saganaki (fried cheese) and fried aubergine slices are also must-try summer dishes. Accompany your vegetarian appetisers with some great-tasting dips with olive oil such as Taramosalata: a mousse made from fish roe, lemon, and bread, Melitzanosalata: a smoky aubergine puree with garlic, and vinegar, Tzatziki: Greek yogurt mixed with cucumber, garlic and dill, and Skordalia: a dip of mashed potatoes or bread, garlic, and vinegar, typically served with boiled beets. When it comes to main dishes, legumes are essential to the Greek diet, dating back to antiquity. Lentils, black-eyed peas, gigantes (large white beans), and yellow split peas are full of essential minerals, key components of the Mediterranean diet. Pulses are typically cooked in soups during the winter or made into salads with herbs in the summer. Greece yields top quality pulses: Beans from Lake Prespes; lentils from Kozani and Lefkada; yellow fava beans from Korinthia and from Santorini Island; and chickpeas from Larisa or Grevena. Try ladera, dishes that feature fresh or dried vegetables slowly cooked in olive oil, retaining their natural flavours and nutrients. Popular dishes include: Peas and Okra stewed in tomatoes, Artichokes à la polita (cooked with carrots, potatoes, dill, and lemon), Briam (potatoes, carrots, courgettes, and aubergines in tomato sauce), Imam (aubergines stewed with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and parsley), and Gemista, oven-baked stuffed vegetables like tomatoes and peppers filled with rice, herbs, and spices. For an extra treat, enjoy these dishes with a slice of feta cheese. Pies, which come in many variations, are also a staple of Greek cuisine. Whether savoury or sweet, made with flaky pastry or traditional phyllo, Greek pies highlight seasonal ingredients. They can be served as a main dish, side, or as a snack. Some of the most popular varieties include spinach pie, cheese pie, leek pie, and pumpkin pie. Discover the rich and flavourful variety of vegetarian dishes in Greek cuisine, where tradition, fresh ingredients, and healthy choices come together to satisfy every palate!

Sithonia – discover the gem of northern Greece

Ivan Andrejic is travel journalist and photographer from Serbia. He travelled to almost 60 countries around the world but his favorite destination that he is visiting each year is Greece. Every year he is trying to visit some new part of Greece, some new islands and villages, but place where he is feeling as at home is beautiful peninsula in northern Greece – Sithonia.  He is introducing his 3 favorite destinations in Sithonia but also presenting his free online book about Sithonia in Romanian language.  Sithonia is well known to tourists from Serbia and Romania and in recent years it has been discovered by German, Italian and French tourists. It is special place with more than 100 beaches and by many – this is region of Greece with the most beautiful beaches of northern Greece.   1. Nikiti and the beaches of western Sithonia:    Nikiti is one of the largest seaside towns in northern Greece that has year-round activities. It is also the place with the best location on the entire coast of Halkidiki, because it is located at the very entrance to Sithonia, in the middle of Halkidiki, at the crossroads that connects the west and east coasts of Sithonia, so you can make day trips and visit the most beautiful beaches of the peninsula during your vacation. Kalogria and Lagomandra are the most famous beaches of this part of Sithonia, but there is one hidden gem that just locals and frequent tourists knows about – it is Kastri beach, south of Nikiti.  2. Toroni and Porto Koufo:  One of the most important historical centers of Halkidiki is Toroni. A powerful city in ancient times, today Toroni is a small place ideal for a quiet vacation without big crowds and loud music. A beautiful sandy beach stretches along the entire town, in a length of two kilometers. Today's modern settlement was named after the former ancient colony of Chalkidians, natives of Evia, who settled present-day Halkidiki and founded numerous cities.  Porto Koufo is a real discovery for many foreign tourists and a secret that the Greeks have kept for a long time. Once a base for submarines with the deepest natural harbor in this part of the Mediterranean, Porto Koufo is slowly developing into a destination with significant potential for active and eco-tourism. As it is surrounded on all sides by massive rocks, cliffs and mountains, there is no wind and waves, and the name itself means "deaf port" in Greek. What is different from other places in Halkidiki is the landscape itself and the very steep massive rocks that rise out of the deep blue sea.  3. Kavourotripes - Orange beach:  One of the most beautiful and exotic beaches in Greece in general. Kavurotripes is an isolated beach that doesn't have many facilities, it doesn't even have organized parking, but because of its beauty and the turquoise blue color of the sea, which resembles the popular beaches of the Caribbean, it is always full of tourists.

Exciting Holidays in Greece: Must-Visit Lesser-known Islands

Greece’s islands offer numerous choices to travellers for a memorable holiday. Apart from famous the world over destinations such as Santorini and Mykonos, there are many other bigger and smaller gems of islands that truly deserve being discovered and enjoyed on your next trip to the country.    Thinking of visiting the Ionian Sea Islands? Don’t be tempted by the big names, this time. Look for Ithaca Island: a lesser-known green place, which combines untouched nature, beautiful beaches washed by turquoise waters, a delicious local cuisine – centring on fish and seafood, and a laid-back attitude. Ithaca is Odysseus’ famed homeland, described in Homer’s Odyssey, a place with a long history and archaeological finds that date back millennia. Visit the Archaeological Museums, the ruins of the Palace of King Odysseus, and the Maritime & Folklore Museum to learn more about the island’s fascinating history. Explore its picture-perfect villages, starting with Vathy. This is the island capital, located at the innermost point of Molos Bay, opposite the tiny Lazaretto Islet, in the lower half of the island. Go for a stroll along the whitewashed terracotta-roofed houses, and charming cafés, and taste local dishes at the traditional tavernas. Kioni is a picturesque seaside village further north, on Ithaca’s upper half, which will impress you with its Italianate character and buzzing nightlife. Other inland traditional villages such as Anogi, Exogi, Perachori, and Stavros should also be on your to-visit list. The nature lovers among you will appreciate the well-kept trails which make hiking on this green island all the more pleasurable. Sailing is also a favourite activity, as the waters are fairly calm. A boat is sometimes the best way to explore the coastline, especially those sheltered secluded coves and inlets that are difficult to reach by land. On the other side of Greece, the Aegean Sea boasts a host of islands and your choice here might be a harder one. In the northwestern part of the Aegean, there’s Alonnisos, an island within a national marine park. This region is the habitat of large seabirds, as well as a protected area where the endangered Mediterranean monk seal lives. It’s a green island with a beautiful unspoilt nature, which includes mostly pine, oak, and strawberry tree woods, olive trees, and scrubland. The ramblers among you will enjoy the 25 or so trails, such as the Alonnisos Great Traverse, a 25 km long path that crosses the island from the south to the north.    After a long hike, there’s nothing better than a refreshing dip in the sea. Mark the following beaches, they are absolutely worth visiting: Agios Dimitrios, Leftos Gialos, Kokkinokastro, Chrisi Milia, Votsi, Rousoum Gialos, Giorgi Gialos, and Megalos Mourtias, to name but a few. Take a boat trip around Alonnisos and the islets east of it. Explore the shallow underwater areas, which are ideal for snorkelling and scuba diving. If you’re an open water diver, the Peristera Underwater Museum is a must-visit place. Located in the sea area between Alonnisos and Peristera Islands, it is the wreck of a 5th c. B.C. Greek 30-m. long ship which carried some 4,000 wine amphoras. Today, you can see them on the seabed where the ship sank, off the west coast of Peristera Islet. This once-in-a-lifetime experience is not to be missed!

“5 Steps to Longevity-the Ikarian Way” Program

The Ikaria Longevity Retreat introduces the 5 Steps to Longevity Program: Meditation, Diet, Mild Movement, Siesta, Connecting. Angeliki Douka (Bs of Physical Education, MA in Psychology of Motor Behavior, PhD in Psychology of Sports and Aqua Fitness Expert) and Kyriaki Spanou (BS in Philosophy, MA in Theatre) have developed and apply this program. Both Angeliki and Kyriaki are two visionaries of Longevity and Wellbeing who spread the message of an alternative lifestyle based on the Ikarian way of living and have designed a program that can be communicated concisely and shared globally. Their warmth and generosity makes the experience enjoyable, emotional and unique. Ikaria is one of the five Blue Zones in the world and its inhabitants are globally famous for living a long and serene life due to their stress – free everyday life, healthy plant-based diet, community bonds and their easy going philosophy of living. Nearly one of three Ikarians make it to their 90s. They eat little, walk long distances, laugh and greet you with warmth and sincerity. They will often take you to their homes. One thing most Ikarians will never stop doing is: GIVING. MEDITATION The people in Ikaria Island used to have many lonely hours working in the fields and moving around. That gave them the time to contemplate life. Meditation is the ideal practice to reinvent this -invigorative habit. DIET Eating is our most direct and close relationship to the world (next to breathing). It shows deep respect to our self to get the best food we can and to make it an enjoyable experience by eating slowly with company. Ikarian diet is a plant and fish-based diet. The island has more than 150 antioxidant-rich herbs and wild greens that due to Ikaria’s acidic soil develop antioxidant qualities beneficial to people. It is a diet poor in meat. They consume only what it comes from home grown chickens and wild goats. Fresh fish is also an essential part of their diet. MILD MOVEMENT Mild movement in the water (Aqua Tai Chi and Aqua Yoga) combines the beneficial effects of movement, the therapeutic power of water and the meditative quality of yoga. This refers ideally to the Ikarian way of movement of walking and swimming. SIESTA At the Ikaria Longevity Retreat we encourage our quests to have a short midday rest or siesta. Harvard school of Public Health has shown naps help to relieve psychological stress and protect the heart from stress-related problems. CONNECTING The famous longevity of the Ikarians is due to their carefree attitude which is built through openness communication, solidarity, responsibility, and festive spirit. An attitude which is encouraged in our program with specially designed theater techniques. The program includes visits at hot springs, winery, beekeeping, along with mountain hicking and finally the famous panigyri (religious feast)! Angeliki and Kyriaki are exceptional ambassadors of Ikarian life and are committed in sharing the values and secrets of Longevity through their 5 Steps Program.
