The beach is not the only thing to enjoy on Crete. When you go to the mountains, it’s quite a different experience. And you can say this about the food. Take a trip south of Heraklion, and 45 km away from the biggest city on the island, you will find the small village called Zaros. You will hardly miss the tavern that has a donkey at the front to welcome you. The traditional cuisine is the accent there – tzatziki, zoukini, and lot more.
