This refreshing salad, famous throughout the world and known as Greek Salad, was originally named Horiakiki Salata. Though this dish can be found anywhere, it is most delicious in its place of origin! Genuine Greek veggies are distinguished by their particularly succulent taste: fresh chopped tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, onions, and olives are incomparable—needless to say about delicious virgin olive oil and feta cheese. Locals indulge in this delicacy during summer when the necessary fresh vegetables are just right. A genuine Greek Salad is a must-try for every traveller.
