Geographically isolated for centuries, Epirus developed its own gastronomical heritage based entirely on local produce, thus following the needs and possibilities of each region in particular.<\/p>\n
The food of the poor, the Epirus pie, was left aside for centuries as nobody realised its importance. However nowadays, it is acknowledged as an indispensable part of the modern Greek cuisine.<\/p>\n
At the same time the Mountains of Pindos, Amvracian Gulf, Ionian Sea and the rivers of the region, offered the locals, throughout the centuries, the pure raw materials that make up the famous cuisine of Epirus. We invite you today to discover this \u201ctreasure\u201d and take your gastronomical quest to a next level with a visit to our region!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
