This summer I embarked on a tour of the Ionian Islands and I’ve come back with many fond memories of the people, the natural beauty of the islands and of course the food.
Also know as the Epta Nisia (Seven Islands), the Venetian influence is noticeable in some the names of the dishes and in taste but what ends up on your plate is uniquely Greek and ultimately a Taste of the Ionian.
Join me on Sunday, November 12th at St. Lawrence Market Kitchen as you will experience a Taste of the Ionian Islands.

Riganada (warm rustic bread topped with sweet tomato pulp, Greek oregano, crumbled Dodoni Feta)
