Simple food, transparent tastes, natural colours: that was the lunch meal yesterday at an intergovernmental meeting at MAICh.

The menu

Shrimp and seaweed salad

Freshly baked bread rolls and white wine

Crunchy cauliflower florets

Tomato salad with kritamos

Mini meat pies and spinach kalitsounia

Olive pate and askrolimbri

Lamb over stamnagathi

Prickly pear juice

Cured meat (smoked pork) and fried potatoes scented with myrtle

Sfakiani pita (seamless cheese pie) with honey
All the food was locally sourced and cooked with extra virgin olive oil. The meeting was of a food-politics nature (more on that another time).

I like the "lamp with local edible greens" - so at least the greens are edible ;-)

DeleteThe chefs of both days' luncheons must have known you would be there both to enjoy and to click away with your camera :) It is good you had such tasty meals served for the conferences!
