Greece is a land of vibrant cuisine. It is food that is neither spicy nor bland, but rich in the flavors of the Mediterranean. It is comfort food in the truest sense of the word.

In summer, tiny tavernas throughout Greece are swamped with people—people sipping shot glasses of ouzo or long glasses of cold lager, and the same people nibbling on an array of small plates of mezedes. Mezedes is usually translated as "appetiser" or "starter"', but this translation does not do justice to the fundamental role mezethes play in Greek tradition.
History notes that Ancient Greeks made it impossible for their society to indulge in alcohol without some tasty morsel to nibble on.
