A very important celebration since no other monarch in British history has achieved 70 years of service. And Queen Elizabeth chose Niko Koulousias to cook for this important occasion!

It is important for the unity of the Greek Diaspora, it is important for us to remember and honor the heroic Revolution of the Greeks in 1821 and it is important for everyone to remember and learn, especially in America, how important this Revolution was, not only for the Greeks but also for all humanity.

But how can we taste and enjoy these delicious and nutritious products when not in Greece? Ms Maria Kalomenidou, a Greek visual designer, foodie and art enthusiast, made it her job to select with true “zēlos” (zeal) the finest from the best Greek artisans and bring them to America.
