Homemade Greek cooking in quiet southern Akrotiri
Grandmother's recipes and meze in old Pyrgos
A small, bougainvillea-draped ouzeri in the lanes of Pyrgos where Penelope cooks the home-style dishes locals grew up on. Expect tomato fritters, hand-rolled dolmades, fava with warm bread and a Cretan-style dakos, meant to be shared slowly over ouzo. It keeps the unhurried, neighbourly feel of a village kitchen.
Order a spread of mezedes rather than mains; the fava and tomatokeftedes are the tells.
