You'll be pleasantly surprised if you go and eat at Zorbas Tavern, the food is good! The owner, George is an excellent host, tending to your every need. There are a lot of interesting things to eat and drink, the atmosphere is great and George and his son, Dimitri are friendly and very interesting to talk to.

You must try the Starters (Meze in Greek), two people can try a whole range of Starters/Meze, different plates and you don't even have to eat a main course meal. Trying various plates of Starters for two people costs Euros 22 and you can pick and choose what you want. It's a great deal! Don't forget to drink Calypso afterwards, it's a nice coffee liquer drink with cream, need I say anymore.

The Greek Salad and Tzatziki was outstanding and the White Wine went down well

 There's cars and bikes to see too, all on display! You can chat to George, he knows a lot about the region and is an expert guide for hikes. So as you can see it's not only about the food...

We arrived with our yellow rented scooter. The impressive black B.M.W you see, is on display  (apparently it costs Euros 20, 000! It's not for sale, though)


This 1953 Audi is also on display opposite the Restaurant
 The Restaurant is close to the main Church Analipsi and Maria Hotel. If you're on the coast, just walk up a bit towards the village and after a little while you'll find the place quite easilly.
