The food: The kitchen diafentefsei the thirty-chef Dimitris Pamporis, with significant experience in hotel catering. Menu dominated by Hellenism: the dishes will encounter products of the islands (NIOTI cheese, krasotiri from Kos), but also from the mainland (truffle Grevena). We started with drawing pie Mani, which was crab apple garnish different textures (puree, caramelized), and continued with a terrine, a cold appetizer with grilled zucchini, marinated anchovies and tomatoes confit. The Santorini fava who came "extinguished" the saltiness of the anchovy and made the dish even more 'complete'. Very delicious was the alternative version of the peasant salad, which contained five different types of tomatoes (!), Mixed with kytherian nuts, spring onion and caper leaves Tinos. Although the portions were very hearty, the imaginary trip to Greece was not to stop in the middle. For main, therefore, ordered sauce Veal cheeks seabream and seabass with garlic sauce of beets and citrus vinaigrette. Both dishes were interesting and tasty, but the effort the chef to present something innovative load them with an obvious exaggeration. For example, the first dish of mashed beans tomato sauce was rather odd - risotto with gruyere suffice. In contrast, the effort to impress dessert caught site. The semifreddo from semolina halva and fresh orange really stunned us with its graceful tastiness.
