CHANIA, CRETE GR Food Tour! - My favorite places to eat after living in Chania for 1 month!

Trying Cretan food and showing you some of my favorite spots.
MONOGRAM ROASTER COFFEE SHOP - g.co/kgs/yDQs7z
You can find high quality coffee and modern brewing techniques along with traditional delights like Greek Coffee (Elliniko).
KORMORANOS BAKERY CAFE - g.co/kgs/GRx7m6
In the streets of Old Town, you can find a delightful meal of classic Cretan dishes from breakfast through dinner.
BOUGATSA CHANIA - g.co/kgs/Ek1mfg
The most iconic pastry in Crete is made in the most expert fashion here. A perfect intersection of tradition and ingredients of the highest quality.
MITRAKI KAITI BAKERY- g.co/kgs/zU6KzN
Get here early for the best picks of the day at this traditional dough laboratory. 9am we were told, is the best time to drop by. Closed on Sundays
TERRA CRETA - g.co/kgs/FHm9W3
Just a 25 minute drive outside of the Old Town is the largest olive oil producer on Crete. They offer a tasting tour for 10€ before harvest season begins. Check the website for more details. I highly recommend this experience.
ANCIENT OLIVE TREE OF VOUVES - maps.app.goo.gl/R4G2JLLmMPSGq...
Site of one of the oldest olive oil trees in the world, and still produces olives.
AVLAKI GORGE TRAIL - maps.app.goo.gl/Yjz23dpfQyV2h...
One of the shorter gorge hikes (2.6 mi) so it's great for a half day of hiking. It takes you along a monastery and hidden cave. At the end you'll be rewarded with the stunning Katholiko Bay. Bring a bathing suit!
CHARMA BREWERY - g.co/kgs/s3aGUe
Beer produced in the mountains of Chania. I highly recommend the Dunkel and having lunch here.
KOUKOUVAYA - g.co/kgs/P5w1Ac
Arguably the best view of Chania. At this restaurant you'll find yourself among locals with an extensive dessert menu. They are most known for their "Zoumero" Chocolate Cake. I had the Igloo Custard. There's really no wrong choice here. They also offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner plates.
TO XANI RESTAURANT - g.co/kgs/QyffjS
Nestled among hanging grape vines in the Jewish Quarter of Old Town. This place has an extensive menu of traditional Cretan dishes that you must not leave Crete without trying. Note: they have live music in the evenings, you will surely enjoy. The dishes I had from my two visits were: Cretan Salad, Grilled Pork Steak, Tarama Spread, and the Lamb Kleftiko.
TAVERNA ELIÀ - g.co/kgs/gouu5w
This restaurant is well worth leaving the Old Town for. Located in the Galatás neighborhood, this was our weekly go-to and ULTIMATE favorite restaurant during our month stay. From beginning to end you feel at home in this casual, yet romantic atmosphere. The chefs are producing perfectly prepared dishes using ingredients picked that morning. You will be sitting under a centuries old olive tree and you be accompanied by cats playing among the bushes. This is really a place where they cook the way the locals like. The dishes I had during our visits: Gigante White Bean Stew, Cretan Salad, Moussaka, Bacaliaros, Skordalia, Stuffed Zucchini Flowers, Pork Steak, Small Fried White Fish.
Open only for dinner.
RED JANE - maps.app.goo.gl/96UH1QLNLRybG...
Housed in a refurbished 1930s manufacturing plant, Red Jane is an extraordinary bakery. This place is truly a gem in Chania, and well worth a visit for perfectly crafted baked goods and carefully curated coffee.

Finally my dream accomplished to live on a Greek island it is paradise

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Amazing. Enjoy!

As a Cypriot my dream to live in Chania and Crete

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Trully a wonderful place. I look forward to visiting Cyprus as well!

I’m in Greece next Wednesday. Chania for 5 days and Heraklion for 4 days. Off to Athens and Corfu

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Hope you had a wonderful time!

[@lachiere_sixx7735]

Greece is the best place on earth I have eaten at. After that I have only dissapointed myself when eating elsewhere, and is in fact one of the big reasons I keep coming back to Greece, besides the beauty of the country and it's wonderful people

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Agree. There really is no place like it. I can't wait to go back and keep exploring that amazing country. Thank you for watching!

[@pivivis11]

I am from Greece, and i also thought that our food is the best in the world, and one day i visited Spain, and then went to Asian countries like China, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, and you know what, i do not consider Greek food to be the best any more, maybe in the top 10, but other countries like the ones i mentioned take food more seriously, we cannot compete with these food giants!

​​​@@pivivis11 I am also Greek and have been well travelled too and i totally disagree with you. Greece is not only renowned for being a food giant flavour wise but health wise in terms of cuisine also!. Each to their own but Greek food culture is unbeatable!!!! And is also recognised in top 2 alongside Italian cuisine!!!!!🇬🇷

[@kevinkibble8342]

I used to go to Chania and the surrounding area all the time as a kid, last time I went was over 15 years ago. I'd love to go back one day. There's something a little unique about the flavour of the food in Crete which sets it apart from food in other parts of Greece.

[@whatomorrowbrings]

What a wonderful place to be as a kid. I agree there's trully something special about Crete that sets it apart. Will definitely be going back.

[@EvaTheodoridou46-GR]

welcome to my country dear friend, I hope you liked the food and the place 🌷🌼🇬🇷

Absolutely love it. Can't wait to return again.

You've nailed it again! You look so well, the greek diet is clearly doing you good. Thank you.

Thank you so much!

[@st.george007]

Monogram made an excellent coffee, The waitress at Kormoranas was so rude we gave up and moved on, To Xani was excellent and the hostess remembered you and the table you sat at. It was the Monday after Easter so the three bakeries were close, Red Jane looked really good from outside.

[@balkangirl97]

I really like your videos, you are a really charming person. I wish I could live for a while in Crete also one day... Greece is one of my most favourite places in the world.

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Thanks so much for supporting my channel. Greece is truly like no other place!

Found your channell as I was looking for information on Chania, found it very interesting and was captivated with your charming way of presenting the food, places etc. I subscribed to see more as I enjoyed your honest and easy to follow information.

Really enjoyed your Cretan review. We are going there soon and for sure we will be going to Terra Creta. You have a lovely way of describing the places and the foods. Your facial expressions when tasting the lovely foods are great. Very Mark Wiens like (tilting the head and closing the eyes and the bigs wows. A real passion for good food. We loved it all and have subscribed. Carry on.

I just discovered your videos and love them! Eager to try your recommendations on my trip to Crete this summer. But first, any places to suggest that we try in Athens??

[@whatomorrowbrings]

Athens is such a cool city! Here's a few must visit places! -Dope Roasting Co. (coffee) -Yiasemi Café (breaky & lunch) -Kostas (gyros) -Creme Royale (bougatsa savory cheese pastry 😃) - Varvakios Central Municipal Market

[@jankaant]

Such a nice video about a place we visited in August 2018 and remember vividly , we actually fell in love with Chania ! By the way , we plan to eat at Bouillon Pigalle , that you recommended , next month during our short trip in Paris

[@whatomorrowbrings]

I'm so glad you'll be visiting Bouillon on your upcoming trip to Paris. It'll be a great place to try the classics! I also highly recommend Briezh Café for some of the best Breton savory galettes and apple cider in Paris!

[@jankaant]

@@whatomorrowbrings Thanks for the advice ! I love galettes and cider ( from Normandy ! ) .

Greece has the number 1 best food in the world. Italy 2nd sry but its true. As a Greek i have traveled ALOT and trust me i rly dont care or say it cause im Greek or grew up with this food but HONESTLY 90% of other stuff i try elsewhere seem blunt or tasteless unless its Italy which is rly good as well but a bit overrated and i put it 2nd. I didnt even know spinach turns brown.. hahaha Also Mediterranean cousin is the number 1 healthiest diet

[@mariachrstofi2238]

Getting strong Mark Wiens vibes!! Are you related?

[@user-qr7cl3ww2m]

Crete and especially Chania is a wonderful place to stay, to eat, to drink and to enjoy nature. For sure on my next visit I will check out Red Jane end Mitraki bakery .. Both of them are new to me. I hope you won t be upset with my remark that in my opinion there is a lot of focus on sugar/ sweets not enough on healthy food I hope for your body you did not eat all of these sweet things in a week _ but your enthousiasme is inspiring

[@whatomorrowbrings]

My stay in Chania was over one month, not one week. Do not concern yourself with my body. It is inappropriate. Thanks.
