Chicken thigh cooked in Greek style on a bed of potatoes and zucchini with a tart sauce made with lemon and aromatic herbs.

GARITHA SAGANAKI (SHRIMP SAGANAKI)

The term Saganaki comes from “sagana”, referring to the pan in which several versions of saganaki are cooked, but the truth is that you do not need a special pan for this dish, just quality ingredients and the authentic Greek love for food.

FRESH PASTA WITH BLACK SEA MUSSELS AND SHRIMPS WITH BUTTER, WINE AND SAGE SAUCE
