Feeling hungry yet?

In the picturesque village of Akoumia, in the municipality of Agios Vasilios, you can enjoy a culinary stop at the traditional café Romantiki Gonia. The welcoming members of the Perantonakis family greet you with warm smiles and irresistible aromas wafting from the kitchen!

Try their dolmadakia, keftedakia, and the signature chochlioi boubouristoi, and you’ll thank us later. But the true star of the café is the handmade pies, lovingly prepared by the owner herself! Complete your meal with a baked potato cooked right on the stove as you watch the flames flicker.

While in Akoumia, visit the Church of the Saviour Christ, and just a short distance away, you’ll find Triopetra and Agios Onoufrios.
