Highlights

Greece, the epicenter of Mediterranean cuisine and lifestyle, lays claim to the historical birthplace of the age-old adage, "You are what you eat". In fact, ancient Greece introduced the practice of abstaining from meat and dairy products years before contemporary society. A remarkable pioneer of this alternative diet and philosophical thought was none other than Pythagoras - a man ahead of his time. Pythagoras believed that the killing of animals to consume their meat was a barbarous act that undermined the human spirit. His steadfast devotion to not partaking in the consumption of any animal products resulted in the coining of the term "Pythagorean diet"- presently understood as a vegan diet.

Itinerary

1
Indulge in a revitalizing juice or a nutrient-rich smoothie at a vibrant juice bar where their motto "Pro healthy, pro-vegan!" echoes. Right before you, lies an array of freshly picked fruits and vegetables, waiting to be blended seamlessly into a wholesome mix.
2
As a next course of exquisite Greek cuisine, indulge in some of the most popular dishes, starting with the savoury “Moussaka” made to perfection with organic black beans, delicately rich béchamel sauce crafted from coconut milk, and seasoned to perfection. And not to be missed, the vegan “Soutzoukakia” - succulent eggplant balls with a delicate blend of spices are sure to tantalize your taste buds.
3
Indulge in a culinary escapade at the most renowned Souvlaki destination for vegans in Athens! The avant-garde Vegan Souvlaki house in Athens offers a bevy of gyro options - each one a symphony of marinated mushrooms doused with delectable sauces and accompanied by plump, country-style fries. Their signature lentil-based kebab is an absolute delight, and their version of vegan Dakos salad is a scrumptious affair of traditional Cretan rusks, succulent tomato, and nutty vegan cheese.
4
Just across the street lies a quaint little store, modest in decor but abundant in delightful treats. Feast your senses on the sumptuous loukoumades, among the world's oldest desserts, hailed for centuries. Our vegan offerings are just as exquisite, featuring the creamy "dulce de leche" and the rich "hazelnut praline". Indulge in a world of refined flavors!
