Greek cuisine is beloved for its simplicity and flavor. In Corfu, don't miss the Go Local tour to the village of Potamos, where you'll spend a day on a local farm, feeding chickens and goats and more to the point, sampling fresh-picked tomatoes, cucumbers, herbs from the garden, watermelon chilled naturally in the well and honey from the farm's beehives. There's a tasting at a local bakery, too. If you buy one thing on Corfu, make it tiropitakia, the local cheese pie, with tangy feta cheese encased in flaky pastry.

 "My favorite is restaurant Lombranos in Santorini,". "They serve one of the most delicious expressions of local and Mediterranean cuisine. I love their stuffed peppers with feta cheese, shrimp saganaki (shrimp with fried cheese), kolokithokeftedes (garlic zucchini fritters served with tzatziki), the iconic fresh octopus and sardines. And for dessert, feta me meli -- feta cheese wrapped in pastry, oven baked with honey and sesame. To die for!"

Damien Lacroix, general manager of Marina, goes for street food in Greece. "Gyros is my comfort food," he says. "Fresh tomato, salad red onion in a pita bread with a meat cooked on a skewer and tzatziki on top."
