Michelin Guide to boost Greek gastro tourism

The Greek is among the most popular cuisines in the world, famous for its beloved traditional food and tavernas.

Greece’s Tourism Minister, Vasilis Kikilias, who was also in Paris for the signing of the deal and for the IFTM Top Resa tourism trade show, expressed hope that the collaboration will “officially place Greece, and especially Athens, on the global map of haute cuisine.”

“Within the next two years, Greece will have its own iconic Michelin Guide,” he added. “Michelin’s experts will research the restaurants of the city and its famous Riviera, and share their experiences on the guide’s website and social media. We are sure that this venture is only the beginning which will bring about the emergence of more and more culinary destinations throughout Greece.”
