Greek salads are the best in the world – 8 in the top 50

The Dakos is second overall

Newsroom July 21 07:59

Greek salads are the best in the world. It’s not just us saying, but the official TasteAtlas site, which included 8 in the top 50, with the famous Cretan salad called Dakos taking the second spot overall.

It is no surprise, as one of the main features for which tourists choose our country to spend their holidays, apart from the sea, is also the food.

Greek cuisine is known the world over for its fresh products and visitors arriving want to taste as many dishes as they can.

At the top, of course, are foods such as souvlaki, moussaka, and others of that kind, especially fish, but the Greek salads have a special place for the food aficionados.

TasteAtlas compiled the list of the best salads after voting, with the renowned Greek salad taking 10th spot and the Patatosalata coming in 15th.
