Cuisine
Crete’s delicious cuisine is considered by many leading nutritionists to be amongst the healthiest in the world. In fact, studies of the Cretan diet have proved the people of this island enjoy a remarkable life expectancy. Delicious local produce is in abundance and it’s not only the shimmering sun that will leave you with a healthy glow.
Harvest authentic Mediterranean culinary delights
A visit to one of Crete’s local markets is an experience in its own right. With a bountiful supply of fresh fish, fruit and vegetables, the rich colours alone are enough to set your mouth watering. Rustle up a little home cooked treat and you’ll soon marvel as the vibrant flavours enrich your favourite Mediterranean meals.
Traditional Cretan food includes many of the signature Greek dishes. Moussaka, calamari, yoghurt and honey are all big favourites. But Crete has developed unique culinary traditions of its own as well. If you have an adventurous palette you may want to try a particular delicacy – herb-fed snails. If not you’ll be delighted to tuck into succulent free-grazing mountain lamb or hearty vegetable pie.
Spice things up with ideas from around the world
From time to time, you may fancy a change from the local flavours. Happily, you’ll find Crete’s larger towns boast a full hand of international restaurants. Italian, North African and Oriental food is becoming increasingly popular and gives you a choice of menus to suit any taste.
