A near-perfect Greek restaurant experience is what you get here: Taverna Maistrali (27. June 2022)

The world is an oyster – once more, something which got reconfirmed to me that night. Friends of mine were about to spend two weeks of holiday on Crete, so we had one overlapping night, and it was time for a small feast, which started, as somehow always, with a “Greek salad (tomato, cucumber, onion, […]

The perfect place to spend a few days in perfect relaxation: Restaurant Argo @ Elounda Gulf Villas & Suites (27. June 2022)

The perfect place to spend a few days in perfect relaxation: Restaurant Argo @ Elounda Gulf Villas & Suites (27. June 2022)

While it doesn’t look all too appealing in the pictures, the breakfast selection in the Elounda Gulf Villas & Suites is quite nice, since it offers a lot of local products and not many ‘international’ or ‘European’ standard breakfast products … The fact that the Argo is located right next to the pool ensures that […]

The perfect place for an evening shisha in a relaxed atmosphere: Porta Bar (26. June 2022)

The perfect place for an evening shisha in a relaxed atmosphere: Porta Bar (26. June 2022)

The recommendation to visit Gorgona was perfect, since, coincidentally, it was located right next to a shisha bar. And not just any shisha bar, but one which looked super appealing. That being said, I was kind of drawn into the Porta Bar to enjoy a “double apple shisha” (EUR 20.00) for a bit and just […]

Amazing Greek food with a view onto the sea: Taverna Gorgona Plaka (26. June 2022)

Amazing Greek food with a view onto the sea: Taverna Gorgona Plaka (26. June 2022)

Finding a place close to Elounda or Plaka which is great is easy, and it’s not. There are so many nice looking restaurants by the sea that the choice is rather hard. Finally, I had asked the reception of my hotel where I should go, and they pointed me to Gorgona in Plaka. And it […]

A lovely place close to Lentas beach: Restaurant Angela’s Café (24. June 2022)

A lovely place close to Lentas beach: Restaurant Angela’s Café (24. June 2022)

Sometimes you stumble into a good find where you didn’t expect it. I was looking for a quiet, not so known beach, and stumbled upon the Lentas Beach which is maybe 250-350 meters long, open to the public, and you don’t need to pay anything for sunbeds. So, perfect to work a bit by the […]

A place to avoid at all cost – not even for free: Mosaic Brasserie @ Radisson Blu Beach Resort, Milatos Crete (24. June 2022)

A place to avoid at all cost – not even for free: Mosaic Brasserie @ Radisson Blu Beach Resort, Milatos Crete (24. June 2022)

Talking about a huge no-go, then that’s the Radisson Blu Beach Resort, Milatos Crete. Okay, to be fair, the whole thing is quite okay in terms of looks and location and facilities. But it’s not really service oriented. Checking in took 20 minutes, but not because there were other guests, but because they are slow, […]

Not sure this place deserves two Michelin stars: Restaurant Spondi (22. June 2022)

Not sure this place deserves two Michelin stars: Restaurant Spondi (22. June 2022)

The Spondi is located in an area I have never been to so far – and I must say, it seemed quite vivid and lovely, so, it was no wonder you would find a 2 Michelin star restaurant there. In any case, the place is not entirely Greek in terms of dishes, but definitely serves […]

Another delicious Bib Gourmand find: Restaurant Aneton (22. June 2022)

Another delicious Bib Gourmand find: Restaurant Aneton (22. June 2022)

Another great Bib Gourmand find – in the midst of a hard day’s work when the weather is unbearable (in terms of heat), it’s best to step out and get some delicious food in. I went for the “multicoloured cherry tomatoes, watermelon, cucumber, olives, peppers, feta, basil” (EUR 11.00) which were great because the tomatoes […]
