Nine restaurant gems worth travelling for, from perfect Greek souvlaki to divine L.A. tacos tgamtravel
There’s a quiet little village in Santorini called Megalochori that is just the right number of miles away from the hustle and bustle of the capital, Fira, and the island’s busy beaches. My husband and I had spent the day on scooters with our young sons exploring, and by the time we stumbled upon this hilltop town we were hot, dirty and hungry. All we wanted was to find a taverna with homemade local food. We didn’t need fancy. All we wanted was something close and good.
We’d checked out the town square but found nothing that appealed. Finally, walking down an alleyway, we spotted a wall of fuchsia bougainvillea and a tiny restaurant called Raki . We walked onto a cobblestone patio and were immediately fussed over by a gregarious waiter who soon had us seated and sipping some raki while we listened to the animated chatter of the locals who filled the place.
That was 15 years ago, and our time at that tiny hole-in-the-wall spot still ranks as one of the most wonderful dining experiences of my life. The chef had walked out of his tiny kitchen and told us what to order – grilled souvlaki, sesame-and-honey-coated feta, pasticcio and hand-cut fries for the kids. The food was delicious and the people inimitable.is one of those hidden gems that – if you’re lucky – you’ll stumble upon while travelling.
