CRETAN FOOD TOUR. 6 Must Try Dishes in Crete, Greece

We spent a day exploring the beautiful town of Paleochora and tasting some of the most amazing traditional greek food in Greece. Cretan food is recognised around the world, and we wanted to experience it during our time here. Although Crete is located in the Mediterranean, Cretan food is more well known for lamb and meat rather than seafood. If you are wondering what you should try on Crete, this video is perfect for you! ------------------ SUBSCRIBE! - http://bit.ly/1M4etCO ------------------ Galaktoboureko is an amazing Greek dessert. The best combination of crispy and soft. This age old Greek dessert is made of crispy phyllo sprinkled with melted butter, honey and cinnamon. Greeks use the most creamy custard & scented syrup to increase the taste of this food by many folds. Dakos or ntakos is a Cretan meze consisting of a slice of soaked dried bread or barley rusk topped with chopped tomatoes and crumbled feta or mizithra cheese, and flavored with herbs such as dried oregano. Olives and pepper can also be added. Kalitsounia pies is a carefully handmade pastry shaped into tiny cups and filled with a sweet cheese. The type of cheese vary depending on the region and can be either baked or fried and often sprinkled with cinnamon or sesame seeds. Yemista: Yemista is a traditional recipe for Greek stuffed tomatoes that comes with vibrant colors and juicy flavors. Instead of tomatoes other vegetables are also used and baked until it turns to brownish color. The stuffing can either be with rice and various herbs or it may contain minced meat. There are countless variations of Yemista and you are allowed to experiment with different types of herbs & spices. Dolmadakia: This is another sign of the versatile nature of Greek food. Dolmadakia are tiny dolmades that are made of stuffed grape leaves. Inside the leaf you will get meat of ground lamb or beef (sometimes both) and rice stuffing. Traditionally, this dish is served as appetizer with lemon wedges. Raki: Originally developed as an alternative to absinthe, raki — its still potent cousin — is popular in Greece, Bosnia and other Balkan countries and is called the national drink of Turkey. Similar to Greek ouzo and Italian grappa, the nonsweet, usually aniseed-flavored spirit was originally produced from the solid residue of the grape — the skin, pulp, seed and stem — that remained after the fruit was pressed to make wine. The town: Paleochora is a small town located 77 km south of Chania, at the southwest coastline of Crete and it’s built on a small peninsula of 400m width and 700m length. The town is set along 11 km of coastline bordering the Libyan Sea. Paleochora is built on the ruins of the ancient city of Kalamydi. It is the capital town of the municipality of Pelekanos and its population was 2213 in the 2001 census. Paleochora's economy is based on tourism and agriculture (mainly tomatoes cultivated in glass houses and also olive oil). It is a relaxing holiday destination since the early 1970s when it was popular with hippies. Paleochora is currently one of the fastest growing tourist towns on Crete. ---------- ► SUBSCRIBE! - http://bit.ly/1M4etCO ---------- ► FOLLOW US ○ Instagram:   / delightfult.  . ○ Twitter:   / deltravellers   ○ Facebook:   / delightfultr.  . ○ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/2QgKRbK ○ Website: https://www.delightfultravellers.com ---------- ► SUPPORT US All and any support we receive helps us to travel more and upgrade our camera gear- meaning it helps us to create more and better quality content! ○ PayPal (Tip Jar): https://paypal.me/delightfultravellers ○ Our recommended Travel Insurance (SafetyWing): https://safetywing.com/?referenceID=2... ○ Book hotels through Booking.com: https://booki.ng/2VBaKaa ---------- ► OUR GEAR ○ Store: https://amzn.to/2ArrQ1l ○ Camera: https://amzn.to/2L11lnv ○ Tripod: https://amzn.to/2Uo7fDc ○ Drone: https://amzn.to/2E8y6NT ○ Go Pro: https://amzn.to/2UwauJ4 ○ Hard Drive: https://amzn.to/2VpVQU7 ○ SD Card: https://amzn.to/2CMk2Zp ○ Charger: https://amzn.to/2s7ese6 ---------- ► ABOUT US A little bit of luxury, a little bit of budget, a whole lot of travel!
