Sharon Brenner, an immigration attorney and food writer, fell in love with Greece's culinary culture after moving to Athens in 2014. She began sharing her recipes and the stories behind them, eventually creating self-published cookbooks to celebrate Greek food and educate others about its rich traditions. Despite not being of Greek descent, Brenner's passion for the country fueled her desire to immerse herself in local cuisine and share her experiences with a broader audience. Her journey showcases the profound connections between food, culture, and community.
"I felt like this country gave me so much, I really fell in love with it. A way to give back through food was to educate people about the country and their cuisine and the history, because it's all so intertwined."
"This was before Athens was as trendy as it is now and I felt like no one goes to Athens, or if they did, they stopped for a day on their way to the islands. My goal was to share the real Athens experience through food."
