A new Mediterranean restaurant with the emphasis on Greek gastronomy and Greek wine, opened in Disney.

Disney World’s Cooperation with HEPO, the Kerasma Inititiative and the European Program “Wonderful Wines” with EDOAO (National Interprofessional Organization of Vine & Wine) and the member-vineries of All About Greek Wine, is rewarded in the most impressive way: Disney opens a new Mediterranean Restaurant, “Kouzzina”, which focuses on Greek food and wine.

The restaurant bears the signature of the famous chef Cat Cora, of Greek descent. It is situated in the striking Boardwalk Resort in Walt Disney World.

The last 4 years, Greek presence in the international gastronomy festival Epcot International Food & Wine Festival in Disney, has been especially felt, through the creation of a Greek pavilion, wine bars, while at the same time, it offered tastings, educational seminars, a Greek wine school, specially themed dinners, cooking shows, parties etc.

Through these well-aimed actions, Greek presence in Disney has been boosted, thus placing Greek wine and gastronomy on the top of the list of thousands of people that each fall visit Epcot.
