Extensive tribute to Karpathos’ gastronomy and close ties that connect Greece with Italy was published by Italian La Repubblica.

According to the popular newspaper, which has millions of readers, “in Karpathos women are still kneading macaroni every day, looking outside the windows of their homes or from small taverns on the hills and emerald coasts.

The spaghetti are reminiscent of traditional Italian pasta in every respect, with the same handmade curve, the same persistence in cooking and the same humble and skillful technique. Walking on the streets of picturesque Olympus or tasting local dishes in a tavern overlooking the endless blue Aegean, one has the impression that time in Karpathos has stopped. In this pause, Greece and Italy have found a point of contact, made of everyday gestures and simple flavors that are imprinted on a pasta plate. “

In the context of the article, Italian authors are impressed by the pure hospitality of the locals, the spontaneity of the place and the authenticity of the island that offers “generous trips to taste, nature and history”.

The emergence of Karpathos through international media such as Larepubblica, on the initiative of the Municipality, confirms the island’s dynamics as an authentic destination for culture, gastronomy and sustainable tourism.
