A tiny universe in South Crete
Would you happen to find art and poetry, excellent traditional cuisine, affordable lodgings, touristic territory development and delightful company all together in one place?
This is what Alfa Café Restaurant and accommodation can offer you, if you are open to climb a little up from Paleochora beach towards a small town, named Azogires.
Lucky, the owner, is a corteous person willing to listen to you, but also to share his thoughts through poetry.
He will illustrate the paths around Azogires, such as the way to the Monastery of the Holy Fathers and the carved caves.
He is also a great cook and prepares a delicious speciality named "Sofia's eggs" out of a secret recipe.
In the cozy atmosphere of the café, you will also be able to purchase home-made herbal infusions, raki, fruits...
And if you take accomodation there, you can advantage of a common kitchen, as well as a big yoga room.
All this makes it a truly, non-touristic, experience if Greece.
