LOCAL RPODUCTS (Olive oil) & Food
In Metagitsi from grandfather to grandfather grow a special variety of green olive which is edible and exceptional for olive oil, durable in drought and cold. The cultivation of the variety Galano exists before 1855 as it is proved by the method of tree timing that was held in very old trees of the village.
In 1924 the residents of the village Metagitsi join their forces and create one of the oldest associations in Greece the agricultural association of Metagitsi. The cultivation of Galano enroots for good the next years, it survives the great fire in the decade of 1950 and enters dynamically the new millennium with the annual production until 2006 to reach 1400-1600 tones. Today the number of trees comes to 450000 with the producers to reach 300.
In Sithonia, the colourful mosaic of nature with so many scents and colours uniquely combined continuous on the table. Fish, shellfish and mollusc from the richest sea of Greece. Meat from certified local farms. Greens and aromatic plants from virgin forests and unspoiled mountains. The internationally famous olive oil of the area becomes the main ingredient form dream dishes that satisfy every budget and demand.
The sea cuisine and agricultural cuisine of Sithonia constitutes an important piece of the tradition of the area. Its people from one side of the peninsula to the other, affected by the natural environment created their own local cuisine moist with the saltiness of the sea and withering by the breeze of Dragoudelis. Every village has its own gastronomic culture, with unique and special flavours that modern and traditional chefs cook in the restaurants and the taverns. Discover it.
