Sun and Sea on Your Plate

More Information

Lazaros knows how to make dishes taste like the sun and seaside. The cuisine of his native country, known mostly for moussaka or souvlaki, has much more to offer than the two classics. And even these are transformed into exciting novelties if prepared by the author. On a culinary journey through Greece he leads the way to many new discoveries: have you heard for instance of Karpouzopita Milou, Milo's watermelon cake?

Lazaros presents recipes from various regions all over Greece: spreads, salads, feta and yogurt dishes to share, classics, hotpots and soups complemented by sweet pastries, honey-based treats and fruit desserts. Always with a fresh, modern twist and easy to cook at home.

Lazaros Kapageoroglou: Chef and patissier who spoiled his guests on Mykonos, Santorini and Crete, later also in France. Since 2012 the Greek gastronome and entrepreneur lives in Zurich where he offers catering as well as cooking classes and events.

»Talking to Laz you can literally feel the sun rising. Even if it is raining like crazy, the energy Laz radiates lightens up everything and everyone around him. His recipes, ingredients, and hugs bring a taste of Greece straight into our home.« – Cathrin Michael, writer and editor for his two cookbooks
