GASTRONOMY CULTURAL HERITAGE

At Peskesi restaurant, we offer an integrated experience, not limited to the sense of taste. Our goal is to convey to our visitors the whole philosophy of the Cretan tradition while promoting the principles of sustainable gastronomy.

Our dishes result from many years of research that we carry out to this day, looking for traditional Cretan recipes and forgotten raw materials hidden in time. Enjoy every and all day an experience that triggers emotions.

SUSTAINABLE GASTRONOMY & AGRICULTURE
We cultivate the raw materials of our dishes on our farm, highlight local quality products, cooperate with selected Cretan producers and prepare our dishes by reviving traditional cooking techniques.  Our goals are the preservation, revival, highlighting and promotion of the gastronomic, cultural heritage of Crete, the consolidation of sustainable gastronomy, the strengthening of the locality and the proper management of the resources of our island.
