The
Gastronomy Club of Epirus was founded in 2008 by the famous Gastronomer
Alexandros Giotis and a group of people from Epirus with a passion and
enthusiasm for researching, discovering and promoting traditional recipes,
techniques and forgotten raw materials from the land of Epirus.
"The consistency in our goals, our many activities, and our willingness to cooperate with other stakeholders and organizations from all over Greece and the world helped us be recognized as an essential cultural institution in Greece and abroad."
Our synergy with local producers, restaurants and other catering companies, organizations, gastronomy and wine experts in Greece and abroad gave us the opportunity to transfer new knowledge and experiences to our members and promote local production and our traditional gastronomy abroad.
Finally, our collaborations with educational and cultural institutions allow us to contribute to the formation and gastronomic development of a new generation of people who will love traditional cuisine and, through this love, will preserve all the positive elements of the old Epirus culture, openness and cosmopolitanism.
Apart from Greece, the Gastronomy Club of Epirus has collaborated with institutions and has presented Epirus Gastronomy in Albania, Kosovo, Cape Verde, Romania, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ghana etc.
