A traditional Greek meal

Next, we have the main dishes for our traditional Cretan meal. The second part of our article about the top Cretan cuisine specialties and the favorite dishes of the locals.

So try one of the following dishes: If you love meat, order some pork chops or lamp chops or roast lamp. All Greeks love them! You could also order the famous mousaka dish, roast goat (really famous and loved in Sfakia) or “pilafi”. All above dishes taste delicious and you will only see how good they are once you try them. There are also the Cretan Kaltsounia, or Kalitsounia, for which there has been another article several weeks ago.

Don’t forget to try some of the famous Cretan drinks, such as Tsikoudia, Raki (pronounced rakee) and the Greek wine, which everbody loves so much.

Last but not least, try some of the delicious Greek desserts, like “baklava”  and “Galaktompoureko”. Enjoy!
