Who We Are
We are a team of passionate professionals from Crete that are in love with food, its culture and the communication that can take place around a table.For us both Crete and its cuisine is a powerful and perpetual experience that is not restricted and it is not only about a dish. On the contrary, the dish is the delicious result of many things that connect the past with the present. Through a dish unfolds a world that includes cultural features, historical traces, scientific or empirical knowledge that have all been developed through the human need to survive. Above all, through a dish reflects the love and generosity of generations, whose geographical identity, awakens memories, creates feelings and begins a dialogue between a companion and a narrator.
