You Can Taste Ancient Greek Recipes in London. 364 41Google +0 0 0 413 A new pop-up restaurant in London is reviving the tastes of ancient Greece.
Stahtis Georgiadis, one of the co-founders of the Philosopher’s Stove, spoke to Kathimerini newspaper. “Given that we cannot re-enact the ancient Greek flavor palette, our project is an attempt to interpret the recipes through today’s contemporary reality, based on our own flavor horizon. We try to be as faithful as possible to recipes and references we come across during our research, always working with the ingredients used back then.
The feedback we get from those tasting our dishes is that the food is tasty, special and kind of off-the-beaten-culinary track,” he said. Georgiadis, who is also a historian, believes contemporary Greeks have maintained some of their ancient ancestors’ eating habits. The Ancient Greek pop up is located at Colney Hatch Lane, N10 London.

Roman London is still under construction From Spitalfields, you have only to walk down Bishopsgate to find yourself in Londinium, since the line of Bishopsgate St follows that of Ermine St which was the major Roman road north from London Bridge.
Tombs once lined the path as it approached the City, just as they did along the Appian Way in Rome. The essential plan of the City of London was laid out by the Romans when they built their wall around Londinium at the end of the second century, after Boudica and her tribes burnt the settlement. Eighty years earlier, the Romans had constructed a fort where the Barbican stands today and, in their defensive plan, they extended its walls south to the Thames and in an easterly arc that met the river where the Tower of London stands now. Just fifty yards from here at Cooper’s Row, round the back of the Grange City Hotel, is an equally spectacular stretch of wall that is off the tourist trail. By now, it was late afternoon.
