Whether you’re seeking Greek flavours, or innovative twists on pantry staples, welcome! You’ve come to the right place.

Hi, I’m Marina - known as chefmarinie

I'm a Greek Cypriot food content creator based in London, sharing recipes that are fun, easy, and occasionally cheeky.

Since 2021, I've been serving up content that's as colourful and mouth-watering as it is entertaining, with a focus on celebrating diverse cuisines and culinary traditions. I'm best known for my standout series, EAT LIKE A GREEK and OnlyCans, which showcase my culinary creativity in unique ways.

Eat Like a Greek, my debut cookbook

My debut cookbook, Eat Like a Greek, is being published this May! And if you were thinking of getting it, preordering a copy genuinely makes a difference to first-time authors like me. It helps publishers and bookshops know there’s a demand, and you won’t be charged until it ships.

Eat Like a Greek is as much rooted in tradition as it is a celebration of innovative Greek recipes fit for ease and convenience. In it, you’ll find over 100 recipes, featuring many exclusives that I’ve not shared anywhere before, and 7 chapters that each serve a different desire or need. From Dips to Mezzes to Salads Like a Greek, to Everyday Dinners and Feasts, I’ve got you covered.

Editorial Reviews

Eat Like a Greek is not only beautiful, but every recipe brings flavour, tradition and joy in abundance. This book is a celebration of what it means to share food and culture, practically transporting you to a Greek taverna as you read. From easy weeknight dinners to family feasts, I know this is a book I will return to again and again for inspiration - Eleanor Wilkinson, author of One Pan, One Portion

I was salivating at every page, the recipes look easy, accessible and most importantly, delicious! I can't wait to devour each one - Natalia Rudin, author of Cooking Fast and Slow

Marina has captured something truly special in Eat Like a Greek. Her recipes blend time-honoured traditions with an easy, modern touch to create food that feels both familiar and exciting. It's a cookbook that brings the warmth and spirit of Greek and Cypriot cooking to life; one that invites you to slow down, cook simply, and eat beautifully - Emily Roz, author of The World is Your Dumpling
