Italian pasta, the Greek way!

Greeks love Italian food. Actually we love Italian food the way we cook it, but it is close enough :)

So today I want to tell you about a restaurant that serves Italian food at the town of Chania, on Crete, the island where I live!

This place is a family business that runs from 1981 and actually it was the first restaurant in the town with a wood fired oven!

It is located outside the very busy touristic zone so it is ideal for a quiet and budget dinner!

When Antonis asked me to take some pictures that he could use for promotional reasons I thought it would be a perfect occasion for my favorite combination, photography and food!

The handmade pasta is the pride of the family and the one thing you can't skip if you ever be there!

And the very special dish for the shooting was pappardelle with truffle, a real delicacy!

We even tried to make a portrait of Antonis in his kingdom, the kitchen with the huge wood fired oven!

Thank you @lauvlad89 :)

You are welcome :)

Nice! Now I'm hungry again... I'm curious, how does Greek "Italian" cooking differ from the Italians?

Ha ha right question, I should have answered that in my post but I am afraid, I can't! I can say though, that an Italian friend that lives near by, very often drives 30 km to go (and 30 to come back) just to eat to an Italian restaurant that has an actual Italian owner!

Oh man! you change my mind. Though in our country we like most noodle. But little bit popular the Pasta. And you share something different today, I am feeling hungry. Thanks for share.

Noodles can be delicious, too :)
