YIORYITSA'S BACKYARD

A Greek Passion

Yioryitsa's

The concept behind Yioryitsa's Backyard is quite simple: it centres on the bond between a mother and daughter. They shared an unbreakable connection that lasted throughout their lives. Stavroula (Voula) Spirea, who runs Yioryitsa's Backyard, sought to honour her mother Yioryitsa’s passion for Greek cuisine following her passing. In the village, Yioryitsa was highly regarded as an exceptional cook. Voula's mother taught her to prepare traditional Greek dishes from a young age. Together, they would spend a significant amount of time each day creating traditional Greek village fare, with Voula learning from and being guided by her mother.

Traditional Recipes

Yioryitsa's

Today, Voula is using the same recipes to create a delightful tapestry of traditional comfort food, just as her mother did.

As you might have guessed, Yioryitsa's Backyard is located in the very home where Voula and her family spent their formative years. It seemed only fitting that this beautiful house should welcome visitors from around the world, opening its doors to offer them a charming, traditional experience. Many guests have remarked that Yioryitsa's Backyard possesses an inexplicably "unique" quality.

It's a "feeling," a "vibe." You feel as though you are returning to visit your own family and friends. A warm and inviting atmosphere.
