New hardcover book with dustjacket, 336 pages, full of beautiful colour photos by Manos Chatzikonstantis throughout. Published 2010. 

In Greece, everyone has a vasilopita (cake) at New Year. The wonderful thing about this cake is that a flouri (coin) is added before baking. If you're lucky to get the piece with the coin, you'll be blessed for the year. Don't you love that sense of celebration the Greeks have?

No one captures the spirit and soul of a place quite like Tessa Kiros. Her bestselling cookbooks Twelve, Piri Piri Starfish and Venezia took her global audience of readers, keen cooks and armchair travellers on magical journeys through Tuscany, Portugal and Venice respectively. So who better than Greek-Cypriot Tessa to take you on a colourful journey into the Greek kitchens of her friends and family, cataloguing the traditional foods for fasting, festivals and feast days in her own enchanting way.

Chapters include:

• Traditional Foods
• Fasting Foods
• Easter Foods
• Shared Foods
• Baker's Foods
• Soups
• Ladera & Salads
• Ready-Cooked Foods
• There + Then Foods
• Sweet Foods

About the author

Tessa Kiros was born in London to a Finnish mother and a Greek-Cypriot father. The family moved to South Africa when Tessa was foud and, at the age of 18, she set off to travel and learn all she could about the world's cultures and traditions, and new ways of living and eating. She has cooked at London's The Groucho Club and in Sydney, Athens and Mexico. On a trip to Italy to study the language and food she met her husband Giovanni, and now lives in Tuscany. Food from Many Greek Kitchens is Tessa's sixth book, following the international success of her previous titles: Twelve, Falling Cloudberries, Apples for Jam, Piri Piri Starfish and Venezia.
