Greek cuisine is characteristic
Greek cuisine is not one of the most complicated. When we don't have the idea of having lunch and time to spend a lot of time on our food, we should look at Greek recipes. This is how we can provide the most delicious and healthy food. In its traditional dishes we can find Italian, Turkish, Balkan and European influences. Greece itself is divided into regions, among which we can also find some differences in food tastes.

Greek cuisine is a tradition
The most important meal in Greece is dinner, which very often turns into a real dance party. Breakfast is usually very modest, and lunch during the sixth is light. Don't be intimidated by the Greek label at the table, but rather the lack of it. If someone starts sipping right next to you, eating a salad from a plate, dancing on the table it's not surprising. Despite the abundance of different fish dishes in Greece, it is useless to look for a restaurant with fish in Greek.
Greek cuisine traditional dishes
A typical Greek meal cannot be eaten without a mezedes, or snack. Traditional Greek salad usually consists of a variety of cheeses served with bread and various types of sauces e.g. the famous tatsiki, or pasta with cucumbers, garlic and mint. Among the salads of course the most famous is Greek salad. Do not look for a salad in it, however, which we are accustomed to from any of the popular Polish restaurants.
