Kali Kardia Taverna

Top choice in Hania Province


You can get a delicious meal at this taverna on the main street in Kournas village. Owner Andreas is known for his incredible sausages, excellent apaki (smoked pork) and meats cooked on the grill outside. If you're lucky you might get to try his delicious galaktoboureko (custard pastry) while it's still warm.
