Petros

Goat's milk feta from mountainous Epirus off the Ionian sea. Spanakopita made with fresh spinach, that marvelous feta, and filo dough laboriously rolled out by hand. Greek snapper drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and a squirt of lemon. Thick Greek yogurt scribbled with fragrant honey.

In Southern California, the French are represented by bistros and haute cuisine, the Italians by trattorie and elegant ristoranti, but Greek cuisine here - and it's not easy to find - means boisterous tavernas. Places such as Papa Cristo's or Sofi in Los Angeles or Taverna Tony in Malibu are fun and good, but somehow we've never really had a serious Greek restaurant. Until now.
