7LEMNOS

Lack of mass tourism on the island has kept gastronomic traditions nearly intact; there’s a refreshing lack of standard tourist menus on Lemnos. Instead, seasonal and local produce rules the roost. Lemnos is so blessed with abundant resources that it’s nearly self-sufficient.

There’s a type of small pasta called flomaria which is unique to the Lemnos. And then there’s trahana, a dried crumb-like product make from cracked grain soaked in fermented milk, which is used to make a thick soup. And prized local wines include Kalampaki and Moschato Alexandrias.
