Restaurants in Greece

There are far too many good restaurants to list here. Let''s just say, you''re bound to like whichever ones strike your fancy. I would advise to seek out places where the locals eat. Avoid restaurants in touristy places, unless you want to eat something that reminds you of stateside food.

As far as what kinds of foods are ''best'', that depends on each person''s taste. I''m partial to: fresh veggies with olive oil and feta, tsatziki (cucumber yogurt dip), taramousalata (fish-roe dip), chicken, lamb, all kinds of fresh seafood (especially octopus), pastitsio, and I also like Retsina. Also, I haven''t found a Greek dessert I don''t like. If you''re really game, have what the locals eat. You''ll probably be pleasantly surprised. Lastly, be careful with the ouzo. It''s much stronger than it appears or tastes. ;^)

~ Happy sails to you ~
