Dining Delights in Heraklion: A Gastronomic Journey
Heraklion is the ultimate gastronomic destination in Crete, offering a rich array of dining experiences.
Indulge in local delights such as lamb ofto (cooked over charcoal using an old-fashioned open flame), dakos (a type or rusk), capriko (pork meat roasted in a wood-fired oven), fresh broad beans, artichokes generously adorned with lemon, and Cyprus vetch, celebrating the bountiful treasures the land provides.
For those with a penchant for international flavours, Heraklion also caters to lovers of Italian cuisine and a variety of tastes from abroad.
