Trigona Elenidi: A Sweet Revelation in Thessaloniki
✅My first encounter with this iconic Greek dessert happened at the quaint Trigona Elenidi shop on Iktinou Street. ✅The aroma of freshly baked pastry drew me in immediately, though the modest queue of 3-4 people suggested this might be one of the city's best-kept secrets. 💫Size Matters Opting for caution, I chose the small portion (€1.80 each) - a decision I instantly regretted after tasting the heavenly vanilla cream filling. 💫The crisp, buttery layers shattered delicately with each bite,😋 while the floral-scented syrup added just enough sweetness without overpowering. 🥙 My husband adored it, though I found it slightly too sweet for my palate - a reminder that Greek desserts proudly embrace their sugary heritage. 🥙The Art of Trigona What makes this version exceptional: Freshness Guaranteed: They bake in small batches throughout the day 📷Though I may not crave it daily, Trigona Elenidi redefined my standards for traditional Greek pastries. 🍰That first golden, syrup-drizzled triangle made me understand why locals patiently queue here daily. #ThessalonikiSweets #GreekDesserts #FoodieAdventure
