Our philosophy
Amidst the lush green landscape of the ecological village of Milia, in the mountains of Chania, Milia Restaurant offers more than just good food – it offers a journey into fine gastronomy, marked by inspiration and simplicity. With respect for the land and its people, we create dishes based on pure, organic ingredients from our own garden and local producers.
Our contribution
Contemporary, creative Cretan cuisine means starting from the roots and traveling beyond. It’s a way of cooking that preserves the soul of the island – the paximadi, the blossoms, the snails, but also the thyme, the stamnagathi, the graviera cheese – and dresses them with a fresh perspective, imagination, and attention to detail. The ingredients remain pure and local, yet the combinations are bold. It’s not alteration; it’s evolution. A cuisine that respects yesterday, speaks with today, and dreams of tomorrow. It is Crete… differently.
