“The discovery of a new dish does more for human happiness than the discovery of a new star.” – Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

In general, I’m not much of a big-meal eater, I prefer appetizers. And there are plenty of them on menus in Greece. This aubergine (at € 4,50) was filled with feta cheese and tomatoes.

Dipping fried zucchini into tzatziki was a very tasty treat.

My travel companion opted for bigger meals. With this one, in authentic Greek style, you had to peel the prawns yourself.

Eating out in Thessaloniki is a real treat: delicious, reasonably priced, and occasionally a feast for the eyes.
