The Cuisine of the Ionian islands or Heptanesean cuisine (Greek: Επτανησιακή κουζίνα) is a type of Greek cuisine associated with the Ionian Islands region. It has more influences from Italian cuisine than can be found in any other part of Greece due to the long period of Venetian rule in the Ionian Islands.[1][2]
