Not so long ago,

I recommended this restaurant to my guest who visited Thessaloniki.

Greek cuisine is based on fresh ingredients, and there are many good restaurants within walking distance from the apartment. Out of a list of restaurants, I will focus on this charming Cretan restaurant, “The acrobat”.

The service is excellent, and the servers will greet you with a smile regardless of the news or politics of the day. You should definitely ask for the dishes of the day.

The welcome dish is tiny olives soaked in olive oil and “Harupi”(carob) bread, and of course a shot of raki – (the local alcohol distilled from grapes).

In the menu, you can find the following:

• “Horta” – green mountain leafs cooked with lemon,

• Beef liver with Rosmarin,

• Escargot cooked with salt and vinegar,

• Crete pie with cheese and figs,

• Crete pie with fennel or beef,

• Excellent smoked Crete yellow cheeseand many other traditional dishes.

and many other traditional dishes.

The recommended wine is Malagousia – a Greek variety similar to the well-known Chardonnay.

The dessert is “on the house” ( included in the service), and they serve a traditional cake with sugary syrup. 

Because it is not a tourist place, the language will be greek, and the music played will be from the island of Crete.

We enjoyed it very much and I believe you will enjoy it as well,

Bon Appetit – “Kali orexi”!
