*****
"Brand new car, pleasant persons."

In the beginning of July 2012 we rented a Suzuki Jimnny convertible with A/C at a very good price considering the "as brand as new" state of the car. Mister Michalis, one of the employees waiting us on the airport and explained very good and friendly all the rental terms. It was not required any Credit Card or other kinds of guaranties. We did not had any problems with the little red Jimnny. At the end of rental period ( 13 days ) we returned the car on the airport and handed the car keys to the parking guardian. It was a pleasure to rent from them. Very pleasant persons ( Mr. Anifantakis and Mr. Michalis ) We enjoyed the time spent in that cute red Suzuki Jimnny, and certainly I will recommend Anna Cars to any of my friends. All the best, Gina & Mihai from Belgium

"We have used Anna cars for the past 3 years with no problems, they might be a tad more expensive but all the cars we have had have been under 3 years old and in very good condition." - drcaj

Yiorgos Hatziparaskos: Filo Pastry Chef (last of the Mohicans!)

Keep Me From Parm: Yiorgos Hatziparaskos....say that 5 times, but not fast. Do it now!

Yiorgos Haziparaskos

... And on a small side street in Rethymnon, on the northern coast of Crete, Yiorgos Hatziparaskos is consistently proving that, turning out handmade filo dough with the belief that quality is better than quantity, and that patience and skill are two more ingredients that help define such a quality product.


... Off to the side, Yiorgos’s wife silently cuts small pieces of baklava, crunchy pastries of her husband’s product layered with pistachios and dripping with honey; you can’t leave without trying something that showcases his hard work in its intended form. Her quiet sales pitch works, and the product speaks for itself. The flaky pastry crackles and breaks cleanly, without the usual cascading shards sputtering out of your mouth. This means it’s hasn’t lost its texture, but it’s still moist enough to stay together. It’s everything you could want from filo dough.


... And Yiorgos clearly enjoys his work. He plays the showman for groups who come to see him work, but you can see in the way that he handles the dough and from the aura he exudes while he putters around in a cloud of flour that it’s not a chore for him, but a pleasure. When someone is so excited about what they’re doing, it makes you all the more excited to be a part of it. And with Yiorgos’s excitement, flour, water, oil and salt became a simply complex wonder.

http://keepmefromparm.blogspot.gr/2008/05/yiorgos-hatziparaskossay-that-5-times.html


For over half a century Yiorgos Haziparaskos has been busy in his workshop on Manouil Bernardou Street in the Old Town of Rethymno, making Kadaifi in the traditional way, just as he did when he started: syrup, nuts, lot's of love and passion and ofcourse with the handmade filo pastry made in the traditional way.

Half a century and still going strong! (picture taken from www.icookgreek.com)

He has been doing this job since 1946, when he was 25 years old, first as an apprentice and from 1958 till today in his own shop, in the same place in the Old Town. If you by chance should meet him when he opens his shop, don't be surprised if he arrives with his bicycle, defying the Doctors who have on many occasions advised him to retire.

A passionate love for his job

Traditional Filo Master of all Greece! (picture taken from: themindlesseye.blogspot.gr)

... is one of the last traditional Filo Masters in all of Greece. He makes super-fine pastry by hand in his traditional workshop. He has been doing this for over 60 years, ably assisted by his wife Katerina for the last 50. The Baklava and Kataifi is by far the best I have ever eaten. If you are ever in Rethymno, Crete, indulge yourself.

All rooms are cleaned to a high standard with frequent changes of towels and bedclothes.    
        

Bar

There are only a small amount of restaurants on Crete like ours, where diners are looked after so well.

With traditional food and special dishes the Aloi assures a unique culinary experience.

There are always pleasant tastes to discover - international, traditional, special and spicy foods.

Many recipes are deeply rooted in the rural traditions of Crete. That is how we started and that is the way we intend it to stay.

Island style at its best!
