Greece is a place that wins everyone over with its stunning beaches, divine cuisine, and wonderful hospitality. I must admit that the island of Naxos<\/a>, while less famous than its neighbors Mykonos, Santorini, or its twin sister Paros, holds a special place in my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is the largest and most fertile of all the Cyclades islands, making it a hidden gem waiting to be explored!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to Stay in Naxos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the second year in a row, we\u2019ve chosen to spend our summer holiday in Naxos. And once again, we opted for the same charming accommodation. The adorable \u201cSorokos Suite 8<\/a>\u201d is just a 5-minute walk from Saint George Beach \u00ab Agios Georgios \u00bb and a scenic 20-minute stroll to Portara.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to Eat in Naxos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After wandering the charming, history-filled streets of Chora or enjoying a relaxing day at one of Naxos’ beautiful beaches, it\u2019s time to indulge in delicious Greek dishes at Eliniko, Taverna, or Sergiani. Each of these spots offers the classic Greek cuisine we all love, from souvlakis and kleftiko to moussaka, traditional Greek salad with local feta, tzatziki, tarama, dolmas, and the famous spanakopita. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Sergiani is just a 3-minute walk from Saint George Beach and serves authentic Naxian cuisine. I highly recommend their gyros\u2014it\u2019s the best I\u2019ve ever tasted, and at just 4 euros, it\u2019s a steal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*At Eliniko, known for its \u00ab katsikaki \u00bb (baby goat) and moussaka, they also have a truly delicious vegetarian version. And you absolutely cannot leave without trying their “Portokalopita,” an orange pie that is simply the best on the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Taverna is another must-visit where you can enjoy deliciously authentic Greek dishes while taking in a breathtaking sunset. This is my favorite restaurant on the island\u2014we practically dined here every night! Their entire menu is extraordinary, and the prices are incredibly reasonable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*If you\u2019re in the mood for Italian, \u00ab Dal Professor \u00bb is the place to be for fresh pasta and pizza while enjoying the sunset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

*For cocktails and sunset views, head to \u00ab Bossa \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*If you love chouquettes and chocolate, don\u2019t miss \u00ab Chouchouro \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*And, of course, make sure to stop by \u00ab Naxos Bakery \u00bbfor some delightful treats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to Stock Up on Greek Products? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of my favorite spots to grab souvenirs from the island is \u00ab Opoioux \u00bband \u00ab Olive Tree Creations \u00bb. And why not pick up a pair of beautiful Greek sandals from \u00ab Pagonis Greek Sandals \u00bb? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before leaving the island, it’s a must to stock up on Naxian products. And for that, head to \u00ab Typokomika \u00bb and \u00ab Saint Isidoros Galanado \u00bb, which happens to be my favorite. In addition to cheeses and olive oil, they offer spice blends to help you recreate your favorite Greek dishes at home, as well as delicious marmalades like the orange and black pepper one\u2014oh my goodness, it\u2019s simply divine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recipe of the Day: Gyros!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now, let\u2019s dive into the recipe of the day, straight from Greek street food\u2014\u00ab Gyros \u00bb, pronounced \u201cYiros” in Greek. This delightful sandwich is inspired by Turkish d\u00f6ner or Middle Eastern shawarma. Today, I\u2019m sharing a chicken gyros recipe that you\u2019ll love! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meat is marinated overnight in Greek yogurt and a blend of spices, then cooked vertically for that perfect texture. It\u2019s wrapped in homemade pita bread and filled with fresh tomatoes, onions, and the famous homemade tzatziki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are all the steps you need to create your own delicious gyros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you love Greek cuisine, I also recommend trying \u00ab\u00a0Yemista<\/a>\u00a0\u00bb (stuffed vegetables) or these delicious (courgette fritters )\u201cKolokithokeftedes<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n
