Hi,

I am Diane Kochilas, chef, author and passionate Greek cuisine expert.

I’ve devoted my life to promoting the natural, healthy and delicious Greek foods.
I’m a consulting chef at three top Greek restaurants in the North Americas: Pylos (NYC), Axia (NJ), Avli (Chicago), and Volos (Toronto).

On my website, you can find a great variety of easy and delicious Greek recipes. I have chosen to focus on creating a special trove of recipes for vegetarians and vegans since Greek food, with its wealth of main course vegetable dishes, is perfect for such a diet. Also found on this website are recipes for authentic, regional fare, everyday and festive dishes and dishes inspired by the restaurants I cook at or dine in, both in Greece and globally. There is also a section on Greek Food with a collection of interesting information on basic regional products and ingredients.

Make sure you check out my classes & tours taking place mainly on the island of Ikaria each late Spring and Summer but also my class & walks in Athens and special tours in other areas of Greece.

Kali Orexi (Bon Appetit)!
