For more food reviews, check out my Instagram @eathiyah___ (with 3 underscores) Started with the Mussel Pil Pil. Mussels sitting on a square of focaccia bread and drenched in this spicy, oily, garlicky paprika sauce. It was sooo good, but as you can see the only downside was it was quite greasy. Still enjoyed it a lot tho The Spanakopita was the highlight for me. Crispy filo pastry on the outside with a soft spinach-feta filling inside. Really good balance of textures 😋 Next was the Pork Jowl. The meat was super tender with this thick crispy crackling on top. It also came with membrillo (quince paste) and onion compote so you get that sweet + savory combo in one bite Then the Truffle Vol au Vent with Peppercorn Sauce. It’s basically crispy puff pastry filled with creamy mushroom and truffle sauce. First bite i was like 🤩🤩🤩 but after a few bites it started to feel really heavy. Almost like too many rich ingredients all together 😞 We also had the Coq au Vin, their reworked version of the classic French dish. It also came with crispy bread topped with chicken liver parfait. Very rich For dessert we got the Portokalopita, a Greek orange cake soaked in syrup with orange and olive oil. It was my first time trying Portokalopita. It’s actually not like a normal cake bcs apparently they use dried filo pastry instead of flour, so the texture is a bit different from the usual sponge cake. I really enjoyed it ★ Final rating: 4.3/5 ★ I like restaurants that get creative but still keep the authentic flavors. Everything tasted good, but most dishes were quite rich so it got a bit heavy by the end. Still a really nice meal tho
