The Mediterranean can be crudely divided into three culinary regions: North African (especially Morocco), eastern Mediterranean (Egypt, Greece, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey), and southern European (Italy, France, Spain). As a result "Mediterranean Cooking" embraces many countries and cultures - the couscous and dried fruit of Morocco, the Egyptian breakfast of ful, cool yogurt soup from Syria, Greek octopus salads, Italian prosciuttos, Niçoise pissaladières, and Catalan seafood stews. Wine and herbs are central to Southern European cuisine, while spices intricately and boldly flavour North African foods. Onions, garlic, and tomatoes, surrounded by olive oil, begin many dishes. Eggplant, squashes, peppers, mushrooms, cucumbers, artichokes, okra, and various greens and lettuces are also plentiful in Mediterranean dishes.

Seafood remains at the core of Mediterranean cooking. All manner of shellfish are used in soups, stews, and pastas. Anchovies, fresh and cured, are widely eaten, as are various white-fleshed fish like sole, flounder, and grouper. Other fish include swordfish, monkfish, eel, cuttlefish, squid, and octopus. Meat such as lamb, pork and chicken are used. Rich yoghurts and cheeses are also very much part of the Mediterranean menu.

Mediterranean dishes provide varied and tasty, so why not visit Le Gourmet in Horley, near London Gatwick Airport to have an enjoyable eating experience.
