PROSOPA RESTAURANT

BEST FOR Modern classic dining with a taste of the Med. FOOD The head chef, Dino Fagas, engages deeply with his ingredients to produce simple and traditional but magical plates of food. Feast on mezze to start, such as labneh, Greek feta marinated with extra virgin olive oil, garlicky, herby sundried tomatoes, piquant marinated roasted peppers, baba ghanoush and freshly baked pita. The croquettes are delicious, crammed with feta and gruyère cheese. Dino also recommends the delicately crisp beer-battered whitefish goujons served with an utterly delicious skordalia mayo. End with galaktoboureko – glazed phyllo encasing a smooth custard, served with fennel-and-orange ice cream. DRINKS Prosopa has an extensive drinks menu, with an adequate list of choices from local wines through to classic cocktails. Have an authentic ouzo. SERVICE Fast, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. AMBIENCE The setting is unequivocally romantic with its moody, warm lighting. Relax on the beautiful verandah during the summer months. (KM)
