Ktima Perek

Ktima Perek is located in Monopigado, Halkidiki, Macedonia, 30 kilometres south of Thessaloniki, overlooking Mt. Olympus and the Thermaikos Gulf. The village is inhabited by many refugees from Pontus — a region of Turkey on the Black Sea coast where a Greek minority lived from ancient times before being driven out in the 1920s.

Built in the architectural style of a Greek mansion, Ktima Perek is a multi-functional venue with a restaurant, café, vegetable garden, animal farm, and children’s playgrounds. Ingredients come from local producers, processed in the estate workshop using handmade traditional techniques and cooked in clay pots in a wood-fired oven.

Visitors walk from the field to the plate, seeing vegetable and herb gardens and freely-roaming animals. In the workshop showroom, traditional Pontian and Greek handmade products are displayed with information about their characteristics. The visit culminates with a tasting of the traditional perek pie with an accompanying drink.
