One of the reasons we return to Samos again and again is the food. We prefer the smaller tavernas in the villages to the more touristic places in Pythagorio, Kokkari and Samos.
Among our favorite places are Taverna Tsabou at Tsabou beach, Taverna Blue Chairs in Vourliotes, The tavernas Loukas and Despina both in Manolates.
This a collection of Samaian food photos in honor of all the nice food served on the island.
