    Lovely Crete, we have been there 1 month ago, fantastic food, people and a lot of cats who need our attention😻

  • @pollatso
    Lots more on 🇬🇷 greece please really enjoyed that thank you 🙏🇬🇧
  • I lived on Crete for a total of 17 months. Raki is great because you can also use it as aftershave and as a disinfectant. 😜 Dakos salad is also one of my favorites. It originated in a very remote and secluded region of Crete, in the South. The people just took their old bread and grated fresh tomatoes on top of it, plus the cheese. So simple, healthy, and delicious!

  • @lisawong6573
    All these wonderful treats make my mouth watering. Thank you for sharing the wonderful journey through Greek and it's food. Take care, Luke and Mink. ❤❤❤❤

    This is the first time I see Bougatsa, and it conquer me immediately. I really want to go to Greece to eat it! The owner of the bakery is so nice, and the spinach pie looks delicious and perfect for breakfast! The dessert of milk pudding and racki after lunch should be a perfect match to make you look more energetic! The streets there are so beautiful. In fact, you can introduce more about the local history and culture in the future. You don’t have to just focus on the food! Thank you very much for sharing, super great job! 👍🥰🙏

  • @achevres
    Crete is on my short list! So happy to see you there!
  • @user-vu9hj3jf3m
    Hey man! I am from Chania. Totally accurate what I ve seen in this video. You have tried some of our finest recipes! And that gyros place Oasis has by far the best gyros in town. More expensive than other places but that's because of the better meat quality they use.
  • @sordmasta6646
    the "cake" is revani. it's made with semolina and eggs, also has lemon/orange zest in it. then it's soaked in thin syrup, and topped with coconut sprinkles.
  • @andymilonakis
    great job. Raki in Crete doesn't have anise. only grapes. Glad you had a great trip
  • @AussieAngeS
    My gosh Greek good looks absolutely rich and amazing 😍 Crete looks heavenly, what a beautiful place to be, it is a dream of mine to go to the Greek islands
  • 20:36 - On that frame , my dear friends , you can see the face of a man that tastes for the first time some really good cretan lamb. A man that accents to heavens after the tenderness and juiciness of the chops are dancing inside his mouth. As a matter of fact, this kind of reaction , sometimes, is also triggered by local Cretans (myself included) , even though they have tasted lamb multiple times. This is one of those experiences that you will probably remember for life. Like the memory of you doing bungee jumping , the birth of your newborn baby, the smile of your wife greeting you after a long day at work... This , is the power of "Paidakia". (Greek for "Lamb Chops")

    Great video and it's great to see you with a good company! Crete is fantastic and if you come to Greece again, don't forget to visit Corfu. You'll be amazed by our cuisine and the architecture of the island. Take care. Greetings from Corfu, Greece
