I eat one warm meal a day so it seems like a lot here.
The most popular snack in Crete, dakos. Have to try it at least once at the source. At home I use toasted sourdough bread. In Crete they use Cretan Mizithra cheese, elsewhere feta will have to do.
''Greek'' salad with (seasonal) greens. Pretty sure they are not purslane.
These greens are a bit sour and moist. The taste is refreshing.
Grilled lamb chops
Day's special is braised pork (and to my horror) with leeks. Thankfully the pork tasted great (although I couldn't stand the sight of the leeks).
The afters. I had a beer tasting appointment directly after the meal and had to declined the raki.
Being the first to arrive I got to choose a table. Greeks start coming from 1:30 or 2pm. Mum is the main cook, dad grills everything, grown children and grandchildren do the rest. Restaurant is across the street from my lodging, where they tourists don't make a detour.

Key is in the lock and I have shoes on, ready to run downstairs and out on the street when the terrifying rumbling and shakes come (which are at random and there's no sign of it stopping any time soon. Happened again last night, twice.).
