Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Professor Thomas Savvidis will present his book, “Pontian Diet”, in an online event by the Australian Federation of Pontian Associations at 6pm on Thursday, 14 January.
The work, recently published by Kyriakidis Publications, is filled with information about Pontian food culture which has been gathered and presented from a number of perspectives: gastronomic, historic, folkloric, etymological, biochemical and culinary.
With rich authentic photographic material and excellent publishing quality, this book will be a must-have acquisition and will surely be a go-to book for all.
Mr Savvidis was born in Klimataki, Grevena, to parents from Ak Dag Maten, Pontos. He graduated from the six-grade High School of Tsotyli, Kozani. He studied Biology and Chemistry at the University of Thessaloniki.
