This glowing town of Minor Asia is known as The Paris of East. It is a hospitable harbour of civilization, a commercial center, a way of life, a memory. A memory that is still alive through photos and narrations. But the heritage left to us is the cooking. Recipes that have enriched the traditional Greek ones.
Smyrnis cuisine reminds us that good food is a ceremony, a feast. It is a wish, communication and thanksgiving. Every dish should satisfy taste, smell and sight ultimately, as food is an every day pleasure. The detonating mixture of food with spices looks like a colourful piece of art, like a rainbow.
