Advantages: Stunning scenery and an unspolit landscape Disadvantages: None
It seems hard to imagine that less than 48 hours ago I was standing on the top of a mountain top village, Markopoulo in Kefalonia, watching the procession of church goers following the priest into the picturesque church. Sitting under an olive tree and watching the colours of the landscape change, as the sun emerged from a wispy slate grey canopy casting an amber ray of light, like a giant fan illuminating the layers of terraced sun baked earth beneath. The sound of the Greek Orthodox service resonating over the hillside was a perfect end to what had been a week of discovery as the island of Kefalonia gradually unfolded its delights to us.
The largest island in the Ionian chain, this picturesque place was virtually decimated by the earthquake which struck in 1953, leaving only the far north untouched, and so everything you see ...
Advantages: Good value afternoon tea Disadvantages: Slow service
Recently one of my favourite things is afternoon tea. You would think that living in London it would be easy to find somewhere to have tea and scones. Living in London it is usually fairly easy to find whatever food I feel like eating, no matter how exotic that food is but it seems that finding somewhere where you can have afternoon tea that doesn't cost upwards of £25 is close to impossible!

It has now become a regular thing for me and my friend to meet ...
We stayed in Skala in 2006, A beautiful village on the south coast of Kefalonia. The Siroco restaurantbar was our most visited restaurant on the island during the two week stay.

The food on offer was mainly traditional greek from veal sifado, kefalonian meat pie, mousakka etc but with a few variations to cater for others such as stuffed peppers. Repeat visits are often awarded with complimentary drinks. The staff were always polite and showed the correct amount of attention to our needs. Chatting with you when you wanted, and getting on with the job when you didn't. Definately recommended. ...
