“Forming part of the permanent cultural achievement of mankind”. This is one of Webster’s Dictionary’s definitions of the word “Classic”. It is the one I like, because it so perfectly encompasses good food and timeless recipes. When I taste a perfect Moussaka I opine that it is a classic dish of Cyprus. Alas, as with […]
