Menu & tasting

Taste 3-4 premium extra virgin olive oils from various parts of Greece. Experience the tasting of Greek olives and olive oil, local traditional flavors, the famous feta cheese, goat cheese, local wine and regional delicacies. Walking through Kapani is like stepping into a living market museum. You’ll find a huge variety of shops and goods, including: Fresh fruits and vegetables, many stalls with regional produce. Fresh fish and seafood, especially around lanes like Askitou and Menexes. Butcher shops offering meat (lamb, beef, poultry, etc.), including some traditional or specialty cuts like tripe or trotters. Olives, nuts, dried fruits, legumes, and a wide selection of spices, often from regions around northern Greece. Cheese, cured meats, and other dairy/delicatessen-type products. Small home goods, baskets, sometimes simple furniture or handmade items. Clothes, shoes, and basic apparel, though the focus remains mostly on everyday wear, not necessarily high-fashion boutiques. Souvenirs, small gifts, for example local traditional/folk items, or small “tourist-oriented” products and knick-knacks. Kapani feels more like an old-world bazaar than a modern supermarket or mall.
