Kos Gastronomy

Mediterranean flavors with the purest of natural ingredients are what the island’s local cuisine consists of. As with all Greek island cooking, Kos hides its culinary secrets in its fresh ingredients, which are in abundance and bursting with nutritional value.

Every place has its history, imprinted on buildings, monuments, in traditions and tastes. Every delicacy, lovingly crafted in the hands of locals, has created its own history that has traveled the globe. Baklava, the sweet cherry tomato, the honey of Antimachia, the wine cheese “possa”, all born and bred of the people of Kos, all adding to the gastronomic variety of Greek cuisine.

Cooking is an expression of our culture. It is a reflection of our emotions, it reveals culinary secrets and links tradition to today, it showcases the natural wealth that a land has to offer and marries seemingly incompatible products with the sole intent of pleasing the senses of taste and smell.
