5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely work
Lovely stories and recipes. Appreciate the work. However not every recipe has a photo. It is difficult for the reader to imagine the whole. I wish they’d have more photos of the recipes.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to follow
Fabulous book , easy to follow recipes and accompanying stories of the various granny’s contributing to the book. I’m a huge fan of all things Greek especially the wonderful food and this is my favourite Greek recipe book by a mile !

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed
Too many photos of the grandmas, not enough of the food which is the real inspo you want to see. Was really excited to buy a Greek cookbook but the recipes are also underwhelming. Bought this in the UK to take it bavk with me to Germany where I live but considering just leaving it behind.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!
My sort of book. I reminds me of the time I was living and working in a tiny Greek village in the late 1960s - all that lovely food. Perfect.

Das Buch ist wunderbar. Idee, Gestaltung und Rezepte!Leider war es nicht ideal verpackt. Die eine Ecke des Buch-Umschlags war eingegedrückt.
Simply delightful
A charming book, full of nostalgia and with some lovely recipes.
Una bellissima sorpresa
Acquistato usato ma in condizioni buonissime, il libro non offre solo ricette della cucina greca tradizionale ma anche di alcuni piatti un po' meno noti e soprattutto riporta le testimonianze delle nonne di tanti luoghi in Grecia! Secondo me è un modo nuovo e ammirevole di presentare la cucina e la cultura di un paese. Molto interessante, ben realizzato e molto apprezzate anche le fotografie. Grazie
Wonderful Greek cooking book!
The book covers traditional Greek recipes through the collective Yiayia experiences. Well written and a must for a complete Greek cookbook collection.Fully recommended!
Simple GOOD Recipes from the Heart of your Yiayia/Grandma
I have been looking for a Greek cookbook with classic, simple recipes so I can cook at home. A lot of the Greek cookbooks I have try to take on a more modern flair, which makes the recipes more complicated and less authentic/original. I have been looking for something I can use everyday and not need to shop for special ingredients in advance.Some other reviews noted this book as "simple recipes and nothing special", however, I find that to be an inappropriate critique of this book because this is a book about grandmothers' recipes, hence the name "Yiayia"- it should be simple and "special" is in the eye of the beholder. When we think of our yiayias, we are not thinking of formally culinary arts trained chefs but rather our grandmothers who grew up during wars (WWII and the Greek Civil War) and before the internet. Many of these yiayias are using their own ingredients or something their neighbor dropped off from their gardens and animals. The author also did the right thing to keep these recipes as these women gave them to her rather than try to doctor them up.To me, this book is very special and beautiful. Every time I use a recipe, I read the story of a Greek yiayia and it warms my heart and belly! Even my mom, who does not read English well and owns all of the most popular Greek cookbooks (Vefa, Skoura, Petreziki, Botrini, Argiro), enjoys this cookbook very much. She feels nostalgic as she relates story of these very same recipes that she and her mom made when she was a young girl in Greece.Great book - for me it checks off all the boxes of what I was looking for: simple authentic recipes I can use on the daily and historical and heartfelt, the author is preserving these women in history as modern day life takes over in Greece.
