In typical Greek fashion, the hospitality, food, and Thalassa are par excellent.  Today I go back to the summer when I had the opportunity to meet and visit with Chef Yiannis Tsagkalos who oversees, manages, curates, and cooks for the restaurant PATHOS at Milos Cove. What makes the food experience so memorable here at Pathos? Chef’s menu inspiration comes alive with lots of experience and love…..  deep dive with … Local herbs and produce combined with a Greek, Italian and French twist. How do Greeks use Spearmint? Why does Grandma’s cooking pair so well with the most versatile herbs and which herb is a must? What is Strapasada? Hope to whet your palate with the flavors of Milos and Chef Tsagkalos.
