Venetian Elegance Meets Greek Tradition – Discover Corfu’s Culinary Soul

A Journey of Taste in the Ionian

Embark on a food tour through Corfu, where elegant Venetian charm meets the bold flavours of the Ionian Sea. In this lush island paradise, every bite tells a story of cultural convergence and local passion. From coastal tavernas to old-town alleyways, Corfu offers a culinary world as romantic as its landscapes. Our Corfu Food Tours invite you to explore the rich gastronomic legacy that has evolved through centuries of Venetian, French, and British influence—served with a distinct Greek flair.

What Makes Corfu a Unique Culinary Destination

  • Centuries of Influence: Corfu’s cuisine carries the flavours of its past—Venetian, British, French—all interwoven with Greek tradition.
  • Ionian Freshness: Fertile plains, olive groves, citrus orchards, and abundant seafood give rise to a kitchen both bold and refined.
  • Flavours with a Story: Dishes like pastitsada, sofrito, and bourdetto are as iconic as the island’s cobblestone streets, rooted in history and full of flavour.

Local Highlights & Gastronomic Treasures

  • Pastitsada & Sofrito: Signature dishes of Corfu—pastitsada is slow-cooked beef or rooster in tomato and spice, while sofrito features garlicky beef in white wine sauce.
  • Bourdetto & Bianco: Fiery fish stew (bourdetto) and its gentler cousin, bianco, reflect Corfu’s love of seafood and aromatic sauces.
  • Tsigareli & Tsitsimbira: Sautéed wild greens spiced with garlic and paprika, paired with Corfu’s historic ginger beer—a nod to British legacy.
  • Nouboulo & Figadelia: Delicate smoked pork fillet and liver wrapped in suet—local charcuterie with character.
  • Venetian Pastas & Pies: Dishes like manestra kolopimbiri, pastitsio chi nona, and rustic pies filled with greens, meats, or robin (roubelopitta) bring depth to everyday meals.
  • Kumquat & Local Liqueurs: Kumquat liqueur is the island’s most iconic drink—sweet, citrusy, and uniquely Corfiot.
  • Corfiot Cheeses & Butter: Rich graviera, spicy Corfu cheese, and the bold flavour of Corfiot cow butter elevate every dish.
  • Sweets & Treats: From sykomaida (fig cake) and fogatsa (Venetian-style brioche) to mandoles and rozada, Corfu’s desserts echo old-world charm with local ingredients.
  • Seafood Specialities: Grilled sardines, savoro with rosemary and currants, and stuffed anchovies are staples along the island’s coastal tavernas.
