Alexandra Salidas Roll

"There is a well-known bakery in Thessaloniki called Terkenlis that has been baking some of Greece’s finest Tsourekia since 1948. They now have locations in Athens, and one location at Greece’s International Airport, which means you can pick up a loaf of Tsoureki and tear into it as soon as you step off the airplane. I know because I’ve done it. Many times. Their Tsoureki is light and sweet, and my favorite thing they do is cover them in chocolate."

"If you are passing by Aristotelous Square or Agias Sofias Street and craving dessert, then make a sweet stop in Terkenlis, founded in 1948 and one of the most famous bakeries in Thessaloniki. You should definitely try the delicious and traditional sweet tsoureki (a sweet, soft bread similar to the French brioche) with white chocolate and chestnut cream filling — you will quickly understand why it’s the most famous sweet of Thessaloniki."

Greek City Times

"What they are most famous for is their tsoureki bread. The tsoureki variety offered by Terkenlis is amazing and includes milk, dark and white chocolate covered versions."

Grekomania

"It’s a habit for Greeks from all over the country and visitors from abroad to make a stop at “Terkenlis” patisseries and buy its famous tsoureki."

Michael Nusair

"The pastry itself actually reminds me quite a bit of stollen, a German Christmas cake. It’s dense and hearty, but not dry. The white chocolate glaze is sticky and sweet, and the chestnut cream is smooth, chestnutty, and delicious. It’s an incredibly rich dessert. It’s so good."

Living in Greece

"What's the best Tsoureki money can buy? In my opinion, it's Terkenlis."

Kyriaki Chatzistavridou

"The best place to enjoy tsoureki is Terkenlis. His long tradition in tsoureki along with his secret recipe makes this snack the best possible choice in Thessaloniki."
