Veggera Named a Top 10 Foodie Website for 2025

A Global Recognition for Food Lovers

We are thrilled to announce that Veggera has been selected as one of IGCAT’s Top 10 Websites for Foodie Travelers 2025! This prestigious award recognizes our dedication to preserving and promoting Crete’s rich culinary traditions through immersive, authentic food experiences. 

Veggera claimed third place. The winning websites applied after Crete’s nomination as the European Region of Gastronomy 2026 and were featured on the IGCAT Awards platform.

IGCAT (International Institute of Gastronomy, Culture, Arts, and Tourism) unveiled the winners on February 6, 2025, during a special gala event in Miercurea Ciuc, Harghita. The award celebrates exceptional foodie websites that connect travelers with unique gastronomic experiences, from cooking classes and wine tastings to farm visits and food heritage explorations.

Why Veggera Stands Out

At Veggera, we offer more than just cooking lessons—we invite visitors to live like a true Cretan. Our experiences include:

Traditional cooking with fresh, local, and organic ingredients
Hands-on activities like baking, cheese-making, and wine tasting
Cultural immersion in Crete’s time-honored food traditions
Sustainable tourism that supports local producers and family-run farms

Celebrating Crete’s Culinary Heritage

As part of Crete’s European Region of Gastronomy 2026, our island’s food culture is earning global recognition. This award strengthens our commitment to sharing Crete’s flavors, history, and traditions with food lovers worldwide.
