Ithaki

Ithaki Review

Ornos, a lovely family beach, attracts Mykonians, and Lefteris Sikiniotis's beach taverna is where they eat, winter and summer, lunch and supper. The big lures here are the homey atmosphere, and Aegean cuisine freshly prepared. The numerous starters include round zucchini stuffed with seafood and rice, or fava with caper sauce. Continue with egg pasta with baby shrimp, dill, and carrots in an ouzo-cream sauce, or grilled octopus with chickpeas. The featured dessert is carrot cake, made by Lefteris's English wife Sharon, although few can resist the homemade ice cream. There is also a Thai menu and bakery.
