Menu
NETWORKING:
THE SICILIAN CUISINE AND THE ARISTOTELIAN SEA
Green beans*, sea bream, shrimps**, potatoes (Paleochori cultivation), aged gruyere, cherry tomatoes, hazelnuts, basil
(*Around the area of Neochori & Paleochori locals cultivate a special variety of green and yellow beans. What makes our beans extra delicious is the wet soil, which receives the beneficial rainwater from the slopes of the Aristotelian Mountain and the underground steams)
(**The fish and the seafood of Mount Athos / Strymonikos Bay are renowned for their exquisite flavor. The reason they are so different from the rest is that the waters of the bay are deep and clean, as the area has many sea currents and there are no organized cultivations to affect it. Thus, our seafood is caught in very deep waters, with the highest salinity in Greece, and rich in plankton and clean food, since no rivers or streams end up in the bay to disturb the balance of the water composition)
Octopus cooked in a balsamic vinegar, smoked eggplant, red pepper sauce, aromatic herbs!***
