Savoury or sweet, with various types of filo, traditional pies are a big chapter in Greek gastronomy.
Sometimes they are the main appetizer or a tasty and healthy snack during the day! At Ariston (open since 1910!), you can find more than 70 different pies every day, including those with spinach and feta cheese, kasseri cheese, mushrooms, pumpkin, apple, and the famous bougatsa with cream. However, what you absolutely must try before leaving Greece is the tyropita kourou (the cheese pie with kourou dough that started it all); it’s truly the best kourou cheese pie in Greece.
