Pascal tailored the tour to our particular tastes and provided alternatives. The three guests on the tour were all American. Pascal showed and described some of the ‘typical’ Greek cuisine rather than exotic cuisine. For example, we sampled ‘table wine’ vs tsipouro. We also sampled different breads, meats/seafoods and other prepared dishes. In between, we had fun conversations about culture, politics and travel. A pleasant time He also toured us thru some of the meat, produce and spice markets.
