Dolmadakja (punjeni listovi vinove loze) Ovo je još jedan pokazatelj sve- stranosti grčke hrane. Dolma- dakja su sarmice koje su naprav- ljene od punjenih listova vinove loze. Unutar lista cete dobiti mle- venu jagnjetinu ili junetinu, kao i nadev od pirinča. Tradicional- no se ovo jelo služi kao predjelo ukrašeno kolutovima limuna. DOLMADAKIA

IRRESISTIBLE FLAVOURS OF GREECE Lunch tailored to suit the gods Once you drink a glass of wine on the Greek seashore, in the shade of olive trees, with a full table of mezethes on small plates, you will struggle to experience the same explosion of hedonism anywhere else in the world G reek cuisine is typ- ically Mediterra- nean, which im- plies healthy, light dishes pre- pared using the unavoidable olive oil, the liquid gold of the Mediterranean. Dishes abound with fresh vegetables, fish, lean meats and cheeses. For the Greeks, food and drink repre- sent a ritual, a celebration of life, a desire to hang out with relatives and friends, meet new people and philosophise on life. Family and friends come first for Greeks, and a shared meal with them is a deeply ro- oted social event. The Western „eat and run“ syndrome still ha- sn‘t been adopted in Greece. Here both lunch and dinner can last for hours, and the taste is a combina- tion of what you eat and where you eat. That‘s because everything aro- und your table is as blue as the sea, as bright as the sun and as relaxed as the sounds of the bouzouki ... For this list we haven‘t inclu- ded that which we‘ve all enjoyed for a long time, such as loukouma- des, moussaka, gyros or souvlaki, but you should be sure to try these dishes if you‘ve arrived in Athens. You won‘t forget them ...

(STUFFED VINE LEAVES) This is another sign of the

versatile nature of Greek food. Dolmadakia are tiny dolmades that are made of stuffed vine leaves. Inside the leaf you will find a stuffing of ground lamb or beef and rice. This dish is traditionally served with lemon slices as an appetiser.

Taramasalata Osnova svakog grčkog obroka su klasični umaci kao što je caciki, ali ukusna taramasalata (umak od riblje ikre) jeste obavezna. Ova kremasta me- šavina ružičaste ili bele riblje ikre, sa podlogom od krompira ili hleba, najbolja je uz kapljice devi- čanskog maslinovog ulja ili isceđeni limun. TARAMASALATA Mainstays of any Greek meal are classic dips such as tzatziki, but the delectable taramasalata (fish roe dip) is a must. This creamy blend of pink or white fish roe, with either a potato or bread base, is best enjoyed with a drizzle of virgin olive oil or a squeeze of lemon.

Galaktobureko Galaktobureko je sjajna grčka posla- stica hrskavog savršenstva. Zagrizete i pustite da vam se usta napune nje- govim sokovima. Stari grčki desert napravljen je od hrskavih kora prema- zanih rastopljenim puterom. GALAKTOBOUREKO (CUSTARD PIE) Galaktoboureko is a great Greek dessert with crispy perfection. Take a bite of Galaktoboureko and let your mouth be filled with its juices. This age old Greek dessert is made of crispy filo pastry topped with melted butter.
