GOVERNOR OF THE REGION OF WESTERN GREECE
Ιn Western Greece, gastronomy is not merely a productive process, but a living heritage. Here, the authentic Mediterranean diet finds its purest
expression, because nature itself has “endowed” our land with a unique microclimate, ideal for producing goods of high biological value. From extra-virgin olive oil and table olives to fruits and vegetables and aromatic herbs, the region offers a gastronomic culture based on simplicity, flavor, and nutritional value.
This gastronomic identity is multidimensional and connects the past with the present, yesterday with tomorrow. Because gastronomy in Western Greece is not just aroma and taste. It is culture. It is a way of life…
IN WESTERN GREECE, GASTRONOMY IS NOT MERELY A PRODUCTIVE PROCESS, BUT A LIVING HERITAGE.
