While I'm there to visit the British Cemetery, try a tour of the great food available in the gastronomic capital of Greece. From the Telegraph article The 30 Greatest Holidays in Greece:
Often overlooked in favour of Athens, the port city of Thessaloniki –
radiating out in an easy-to-navigate grid of streets from its historic
centre and Ladadika district – has long been known as gourmet heaven by
Greeks.
Since Greece is the home of the healthy Mediterranean diet, foodie indulgence is fairly guilt-free, which is just as well: from cinnamon and custard filo pastry bougatsa – best enjoyed at the century-old pastry shop Bantis – to the meat-skewer treat souvlaki and meze snacks served in a string of low-key family-owned taverna known as koutoukia, there is plenty to tempt those tastebuds.
Eat and Walk runs half-day food tours of Thessaloniki from £32 per person.
