Selene Restaurant

On a Modern Greek Island, a Restaurant Brings the Past to Life

Home Made Tzatziki

Tzatziki is perhaps one of the best and easiest condiments to have in the fridge. All you require is some greek yogurt or hung curd, chopped cucumber, some herbs of your choice, and oil and garlic and ta-dah, the delicious dip is ready.

Greek-Russian Friendship

Realising that the Greek-Russian friendship grows, we would like to draw some lines about it.
Humanitarian relations, cooperation and contacts between people in the domain of culture and art, and interaction in the area of education, are important components in our ties. It is good that over 1 million Russian tourists have visited Greece this year. We expect that the Joint Programme of Action signed between the Federal Agency for Tourism and the Ministry of Tourism of the Greek Republic for the period of 2013-2015, which was signed on 15 October in Moscow, will contribute to the growth of these indices.

Ouzo, Greece's famous drink!

Ouzo drinking is an art. But it's not the ouzo, it's who you drink it with that really makes the experience. There is an old Greek saying that "ouzo makes the spirit" and this is especially true in Greece. The Greek spirit or kefi (KEH-fee) is found in hearty food, soulful music, and the love of lively conversation. A glass of chilled ouzo is the perfect companion to all of these things.

Santorini Sunrise

When you grow up watching as many movies as I did, you naturally become very attracted to travel. I had to see the London of James Bond and Mary Poppins, the Paris of Funny Face and Gigi — But even more than London and Paris, I was drawn to the lush, sexy, and sometimes mystery-veiled Greek islands!!
