About this ebook
Traditional family recipes and the ancient Hellenic custom of welcoming the stranger as a friend known in Greece as philoxenia have inspired the uniquely welcoming ambience of Kokkari restaurant in San Francisco. A whole spring lamb spit-roasting over an open fire greets diners, and the menu offers familiar dishes like dolmades, avgolemono soup, and lamb moussaka along with more unusual Greek dishes such as deep fried smelt, watermelon and feta salad, and grilled octopus. Through its use of fresh seasonal ingredients, Kokkari brings a refined, cosmopolitan sensibility to a beloved Mediterranean culinary tradition. Its owners and chefs are proud to have ushered in a new era of appreciation for vibrant Greek flavors. Now they invite you to try some of their favorite dishes at home, and wish you a Greek bon appetit: kali orexi!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Clear, concise recipes accompanied by a beautiful narrative about Greek food and culture. Very nice presentation with beautiful photos.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5
Baaaaaaa..... Lamb, lamb & more lamb!
This book is very nicely put together & the presentation is lovely. All of the basic ingredients are pictured & explained as is the tradition of Greek hospitality.
The recipes are tempting, and if you like lamb as much as I do, well there are many recipes that will make you happy. The Bizelosalata (Sweet Green Peas w/ feta) sounded marvelous as did the: Grilled octopus w/ lemon & olive oil; Grilled calamari stuffed w/ feta, mint & orange; Tyropita (cheese stuffed filo); Lamb eggplant casserole w/ custard topping; & Braised pork w/ celery & avgolemono.
I'm looking forward to trying the lamb riblets w/ lemon & oregano and the grilled octopus.....
