Upsala Nya Tidning, 30 March 1996 (Sweden)

" [...] Maria Renhuldt, or Tsilimigras as she now is called, is living since ten years in Zakynthos. She lives in an idyllic rural area in the village Vassilikos together with her husband Dionysis and their two children. Their own olive grove, the holiday homes they rent to tourists and seminars in Greek cooking keep Maria and Dionysis busy all year around. Their houses are situated just a kilometer from Gerakas beach where the giant Loggerhead sea turtles nest in the summer.

Still, after all these years, Greek food and cooking makes Maria happy.

- It is fantastic how tasty vegetables and fruits are here. Everything grows so fast. We have fresh fruit and vegetables from our garden all seasons; mandarins, oranges, lemons, apricots, cherries, tomatos, almonds and herbs.

As she goes on telling with passion about food and cooking being such an important part of Greek culture and history she brings in the last starter for tonights dinner; garlic dip or skordalia as it is called in Greek. [...] "
