Crete’s famous main dishes – melt in your mouth

No meal in Crete is complete without trying some of the island’s famous main dishes. Indulge in a delicious moussaka and kleftiko, a slow-cooked lamb wrapped in parchment with herbs and vegetables, becoming so tender it melts in your mouth. Don’t forget to sample the many varieties of local cheeses, such as graviera and anthotyros, often served with a drizzle of island honey. End your culinary exploration with something sweet. Loukoumades, small honey-drenched donuts, or kalitsounia, small cheese or sweet-filled pies, provide a perfect conclusion to a meal. Wash it all down with a glass of raki, the traditional Cretan spirit, or enjoy a cup of strong Greek coffee.
