The culinary experience begins with a selection of traditional appetizers designed to awaken the palate. True to its Santorinian roots, the restaurant highlights the island’s famed produce. The Fava (€7.00) is a must-try; this creamy purée made from yellow split peas, a crop cultivated on the island’s volcanic soil for over 3,500 years, is a classic dish served simply with onion and olive oil. Another signature starter is the Tomato Keftedes (€7.00) – delicious tomato fritters made from the island’s unique, sweet cherry tomatoes, blended with herbs and lightly fried.
The offering extends to other Greek classics like Tzatziki (€5.00), a refreshing yogurt, cucumber, and garlic dip, and Tyrokafteri (€6.00), a spicy cheese spread. For a taste of the sea, the Grilled Octopus is a popular choice, showcasing the simple, perfect grilling techniques of the Mediterranean.
