ΣΤΟΥ ΚΟΥΦΟΥ ΤΗΝ ΠΟΡΤΑ — Restaurant in Municipality of Platanias

If you’re looking for real, authentic Greek food, the kind your grandma would lovingly cook for you - this is the place. There’s no menu, but trust me, you won’t need one. You simply sit down, and whatever is fresh and available that day appears on your table — and somehow, it’s always perfect. The owner, Jorgus, and his lovely mum go above and beyond to make you feel like family. They truly embody Cretan hospitality warm, genuine, and generous. We were spoiled with amazing food, local wine, and even stories! Take a moment to chat with Jorgus if you can he has the most fascinating tales about Crete and the region. You can also buy incredible local products here, like thyme honey and olive oil, at very fair prices ideal souvenirs to take a bit of Crete home with you. No fancy menus, no fuss just pure, heartfelt Greek cooking and a beautiful experience you’ll remember long after you leave.
Highly, highly...

Traditional Cretan food cooked by Cretan Mama. You can get real cretan dishes there. Do you know Pilafi? Make a call and make reservation. They will prepare it for you.

Yeas and almost forget to tell you most vegetables it's from their own farm in bio quality. Even the wine is bio made...
