Conceived as a day under the sail, A Culinary Journey around the Greek Islands by celebrated Greek cook and food writer Theodore Kyriakou explores the rich diversity of simple, uncomplicated food that the Greek islanders have created, despite being forced to work with a very restricted palette. Where islands have their own particularly fascinating ingredients, he examines these in detail, as well as providing traditional and original recipes using them.

Theodore Kyriakou sets out not only to covey the inventiveness of the cuisine, but also to communicate the character of the islands and as the sheer pleasure to be had sailing these waters from dawn to dusk.

Taking in the rhythm of the day under sail, and a sense of the natural elements and seasons, there are recipes linked to the time of day, as well as ingredient and preparations that one would encounter along the journey. These are followed by studies of the store-cupboard items so valuable to the islanders and on board the ship; local meat and poultry; festive food; and dishes for dinner on the beach and under the stars.

The text not only provides a wealth of fascinating recipes but takes the reader on an unforgettable journey to some of the most magical spots on earth to share the excitement of each landfall.
