2. Lukumás
Lukumás is the word used in Greek for the “”donut“. In 1992, Theo Vasiliki P. and his wife set up a workshop in Thessaloniki. They started distributing in bakeries and patisseries, but soon they also sold directly to the queuing public. Years later his son Petros settled in Barcelona and decided to continue the tradition opening another workshop to sell lukumás in the usual way: using top quality raw materials and preparing them daily with the utmost care and attention to detail. There are currently two locations, one in Gràcia neighbourhood and the second in Raval.
