The Cretan diet is famous all over the world, for its nutritional value. Cretan people enjoy longevity, not only due to the environment they are living in, but especially because of the healthy food they enjoy. Star and culinary foundation of the Cretan diet is the unique olive oil, a variety of seasonal vegetables, excellent meat, mostly pork and goat and of course fresh fish.
Add to that the fine Cretan wine and the local schnapps "Raki", produced yearly in local distilleries in a festive environment, and you have a complete diet to keep you in full energy for many years to come.
