Taste delicious loukoumades, a traditional Greek delicacy. Loukoumades are little bite-sized fluffy sweet honey balls (the Greek version of donuts), which are deep fried to golden and crispy perfection. Greek donuts (loukoumades) are traditionally served soaked in hot honey syrup, sprinkled with cinnamon and garnished with chopped walnuts or toasted sesame seeds.

Enjoy some moussaka when out exploring Rethymno. This classic Greek dish consists of a brilliant combination of eggplant and ground beef, which has been prepared in a style akin to a casserole. Moussaka is particularly known for the delicious tomato-based sauce that is layered in between the eggplant and meat.

Savor another beloved local favorite known as "dolmades." Dolmades typically consist of minced meat and long-grain rice that are usually baked like a casserole in the oven. Additional ingredients include tomatoes, peppers, and courgettes.
