60-Minute Taste of Greece: Multiplex Food Tasting in Athens

1 h
About this activity
Taste the best of Greece in just a few steps. Meet at the Meliartos gastronomy multiplex, rain or shine at your requested time between 9am and 4pm. Located in downtown Athens, their philosophy is to promote local cooking traditions with a modern twist. This is where you can taste authentic local recipes and premium deli products from all over Greece.

You will be introduced to the aromatic ritual of Greek coffee making in hovoli (hot sand). Sip, savor and listen to its history.

Up next is the kitchenette. Watch the chef prepare Meliartos' version of Greek pita or traditional Greek pies and learn about the staple of the local diet for centuries.

Time to please your palate, savoring the most favorite Greek sweet pie called bougatsa.

Last but not least is the deli products tasting. Seat comfortably in the tasting room and let a food specialist guide introduce you to some of the most interesting and acclaimed Greek deli products, locally produced from small farms and family businesses. Sample extra virgin olive oil from centuries old local varieties, plus honey and premium aromatic vinegars. 

Meliartos is the ideal spot for your Greek gastro break - just a stone’s throw from Monastiraki square, picturesque Plaka and the major archaeological sites of Athens. Join for a tasting session year round.

Tour last an hour and concludes at the multiplex.
