Slow food at 'α λα παλαιά', Strinilas, Corfu
I love a Sunday lunch in the mountains in winter with a roaring fire and friends - η παρέα μας - all about - several of whom speak perfect Greek.. We were at a taverna - A La Palaia - in the village of Strinilas in the mountains of Corfu. Left to right - Tim, Lin (hidden), Cinta, Nikki, Sally, Paul and Simon. We started - after a winding drive from Ano Korakiana - with a selection of garlic mushrooms, pies, snails, and of course fresh bread and garlic butter plus jugs of white and red village wine and lager. Main courses chosen from the kitchen included large shrimps, squid in its own ink, roast lamb, and pork chops - and lots of Greek salad with goat cheese and roast potatoes. We finished with honey sweets in filo pastry and different coffees and cinammon apple slices. We left around 8.00pm.
