Meet our Baker

Kostas…

My deep passion for baking is perhaps only surpassed by my love of sharing – sharing baking knowledge, culture, my village, and perhaps best of all, sharing food. My wife Anna & I have hosted over 1,000 people in our home, and always the best times are around the kitchen & baking tables.

My father opened the bakery the day after the old village baker closed. He knew the village needed a bakery and he wanted to set something up for his oldest son for the future. My family already had our sheep farm and vineyard. I started working in the bakery 31 years ago, at first just in the mornings before school. I didn’t love it, but over time, I saw how the bakery is the heart of the village – I came to love being able to provide such an important staple to my community. Slowly it became my deep passion and now my art. Every day I create a new!

What our guests are saying

Zitsa - Our Village

Zitsa truly is a magical place and while we work we can share stories about our different cultures, and life in the village in general (there is a lot to learn about this place and we are more than happy to tell you what makes Zitsa so special and why there is nowhere else we’d rather be!).

We can give you some basic Greek lessons as well if you want!
