Educational Farm - Ntounias

Stelios’ approach to food is synonym to ‘a story of the land,’  and his hyper-local menu celebrates extraordinary produce that’s foraged in the surrounding area or grown at nearby his farm; growing heirloom and native produce solely for the restaurant using all biodynamic practices. The simplest food can inspire the most imagination and makes his dishes meaningful by ‘finding the secret life in each ingredient.’

Ntounias | Drakona, Chania: Cretan food, exemplified by the flavors of our childhood…

Redolent tomatoes straight from the vine, crushed barley rusks into the salad sucking all their lovely flavors, herbs for sore throats picked on the hillside, Greek yiayias wild rabbit secret recipes, mpoureki (savory pie) stuffed with Stelios’ goat’s curd – mizithra, Cretan meat pie (occasionally), yogurt as dessert - jeweled with pomegranate seeds, the smell of Nature when you walk aside, keeping with old family traditions to be shared with everyone on the table, and piping hot cheese pies with Cretan thyme honey for afternoon snacking… Indulging gradually in this simple, traditional Cretan eatery is pure childhood for team SteMajourneys.
