One of the joys of foreign travel is immersing yourself in the culture and tasting a new cuisine. During this enticing excursion, you can experience the warmth of Cretan hospitality and satisfy your appetite with a festive Easter meal at the Arolithos Folklore Museum. Upon arrival at the venue, you'll be warmly welcomed with a traditional treat followed by a festive Easter meal beginning with "mezedes" (appetitzers) like cheese-filled pastries known as "sarikopitakia" and stuffed vine leaves called "dolmadakia." The main course is slow-roasted lamb accompanied by oven-baked potatoes. To conclude, you'll be served a selection of seasonal fresh fruit, mini cheese pies, traditional Easter cookies, and "kalitsounia," a beloved Cretan pastry. All complemented by bottled water, barrel-aged wine, and raki, (grape brandy). As you feast on local delicacies, enjoy a vibrant folkloric show featuring traditional dancers performing to the sounds of authentic Cretan music.
