With Athens as a backdrop, Diane explores the foods that unite us, meaning the foods so many of us have in common regardless of where we are from. Can soba noodles be grecophied?

Can the idea of a chicken gyro morph into a Greek-style fajita? We're guessing you know the answer!

The result is a taste of heaven on earth!

Guests: Artemis Tsakalou; Yannis Dekolis.
