Successful participation of the Region of Attica in the National Geographic Traveller Food Festival in London

The Region of Attica participated with great success in the National Geographic Traveller Food Festival, the leading gastronomic event that was held 20-21 July 2019, at the Business Design Centre, in North London, organised by the well-respected and universally acclaimed magazine National Geographic Traveller. 

At the invitation of the Greek National Tourism Organisation (GNTO) Office in the United Kingdom and Ireland, the Region of Attica participated in this targeted tourism promotional action as GNTO’s co-exhibitor, communicating to the British audience the multitude of possibilities for all year round, short break holidays offered in Attica, this time emphasising on the region’s gastronomic offering. The audience had the opportunity to experience the extraordinary flavours of Attica’s traditional products, local recipes and unique wines.

Alongside the festival, on Saturday 20 July 2019, the Region of Attica organised a special “Masterclass” gastronomic presentation at the “Cinnamon Masterclass Theatre sponsored by the Greek National Tourism Organisation”, highlighting typical products of Attica’s land. The presentation was conducted by Executive Chef, Asimakis Chaniotis, the first Michelin awarded Greek chef outside Greece and the youngest in London with this distinction.

The talented chef and his brigade prepared a modern version of “Brunch in Attica”, as they named it, based on Kythera olive oil rusks, tomatoes, capers, feta cheese, olive oil, Aegina fistiki (pistachio) and Savvatiano wine, which thrilled the large audience that attended the presentation and savoured the original recipes.
