SeafoodIn this tranquil fishing village, you stroll along a street lined with all kinds of restaurants, yet this stone house, with its rather rustic decor and lovely waterside terrace, immediately catches your eye. A glance at the display counter, brimming with a vibrant array of mezze, is enough to draw in any foodie. Sea bass in olive oil, accented with just the right amount of vinegar and peppercorns, that melts in your mouth, is served alongside grilled aubergine and peppers with a delicate balance of sweet and heat: utterly blissful. You can also choose from a variety of fish, prepared simply but served exceptionally fresh. Mandalya is the place to be for house-made, authentic cuisine at fantastic value for money.
