Mezedaki, Santorini 07-2020

After arriving into Perissa after a long transit, car rental and an afternoon beach session, our host suggested nearby Mezedaki which I had also conveniently put onto my list beforehand already.

They didn't have the kebabs, lamb chops or moussaka, 3 items we would almost certainly have chosen from. Ah well, at least we could branch out a bit more then.

- Sea bream - excellent grilled with perfectly soft texture and crisp skin. Overall seasoned well. I thought they said it would come with fried potatoes (which I saw and smelled from an adjacent table) but unfortunately it was fries instead;
- Santorini tomato-vegetable fritters (traditional deep fried patties) €7.5 - soft squishy insides with tomato acidity and taste. Thought they were ok with the tzatziki but nothing too special;
- Bougiourdi (kefalotyri, Greek feta, fresh tomato, spicy peppers, baked in the oven) €6.4 - very thick cheesy kefalotyri layer on top and salty feta underneath with chopped tomato and jalapeno. There's only so much of this you can easily eat and would have been good with bread, if we could stomach more food. 

Our waiter was very friendly and conversant. Traditional music played throughout.

They gave us some free mini magnum (type) things to finish off on. Very generous.
