In 1949, Evris Kontos brought his experience as a phyllo mastoras (master fillo maker) from Cyprus to the United States. He developed the first machine to produce ultra thin Fillo, allowing this light, flaky pastry to be available in your local market. From our tissue thin #4 Fillo to our thickest and strongest yet, #10 Country-Style Fillo, our range of thicknesses adds a new dimension to your culinary creativity and the finishing touch to your sweet desserts, savory appetizers, and entrees. Try our Kataifi to add beautiful birds’ nests and delicate pastry decoration to your creations.

Some of these specialties are made by Kontos, and we seek out premier importers from this region to supplement our own product offerings. Dolmades, Tarama and Taramosalata, Hummus, Falafel, Special Relishes, Oils, and many other regional products are in our inventory.
