MENU

Fish* Soup
Treasure of the sea
Monastery kakavia from Agion Oros (Mount Athos) with fresh seafood and organic vegetables
(*The fish and the seafood of Mount Athos are renowned for their exquisite flavor. The reason they are so different from the rest is that the waters of the bay are deep and clean, as the area has many sea currents and there are no organized cultivations to affect it. Thus, our seafood is caught in very deep waters, with the highest salinity in Greece, and rich in plankton and clean food, since no rivers or streams end up in the bay to disturb the balance of the water composition).
Beetroot carpaccio with Greek yoghurt**, garlic and walnuts
(**Eastern Halkidiki produces excellent quality yogurt, made by fresh goat and sheep milk. The product is organic, since the animals graze freely on the slopes of Mount Aristotle and the surrounding hills. All the mountains are protected by the European Convention NATURA 2000. There are three yogurt factories in the area).
