Known
for the beautiful traditional embroideries (called
“karpeto” and “mantanies”) made in the village of
Karia, Lefkada also produces a large variety of agricultural
products due to the fertility of its lands.
Olive oil, citrus, honey, almonds, fish and wine are
of excellent quality in Lefkada.
Similar to the food of the other Ionian Islands, the
food in Lefkada is fine and made of high quality products.
Some of the specialities of the island are the traditional
dish called “Eglouvis lentils”, the “salami” (sausage),
the “savoro” (fish with herbs, raisins and garlic),
the fish dish called “aliada”, the “soumada” (local
sweet beverage) and mouth-watering sweets like the
“mandolata” (nougat) and the “pasteli” (mixture of
caramelized sesame seeds and honey).
