点评:Biolea chef's table gastronomy diner was by far the highlight of our trip!!! Don't skip it!
The perfect balance between luxury, authentic backcountry, gastronomy, and a million other qualities. Everything is so well thought for the perfect ambiance and experience. The timing with the sunset view was unreal.
We were welcomed like royalty with a special drink to accommodate my pregnancy (even thought the welcome drink was non-alcoholic, they said it contained something that wasn't pregnancy safe and made me a delicious custom one! That was incredibly thoughtful!)
The olive estate tour felt like a warm family gathering if your aunt was also a world-class olive oil master. Very professional and interesting.
And then the diner... absolutely fantastic! The tables are spaced out in the most unreal romantic garden setting. Each service was beautiful and delicious (and we love trying Michelin starred restaurants, I hope for Biolea that Michelin comes to Crete eventually, they really have a shot at it!). They had a perfect mocktail pairing for me. My partner really enjoyed the generous wine pairing too.
It's really something that this family's history, talents and education all came together to create this wonderful place.
The reason I'm taking the time to make such a long review is that they really deserve all the praise. Also, we booked another fancy restaurant, The Secret Gorge, during our trip... and while it was fun, it was double the price and we really think it should've been the other way around. We found Biolea's quality, level of gastronomy and professionalism far superior and would've gladly paid more for what we had.
If you're looking for the perfect evening, this is it!
翻译:Biolea主厨餐桌美食餐厅绝对是我们此行的亮点!!!千万别错过!
这里完美融合了奢华体验、地道的乡村风情、精致美食以及无数其他优点。每一个细节都经过精心设计,只为营造完美的氛围与体验。能边用餐边欣赏日落,更是无与伦比的享受。
我们受到宛如皇室般的礼遇:还特意为我准备了适合孕期饮用的饮品(虽然那是一款无酒精饮料)。他们说原定的菜品里含有某种对孕妇不安全的成分,于是为我特别定制了一道美味佳肴!这份贴心真是无与伦比啊!
橄榄油庄园的参观之旅则宛如一场温馨的家庭聚会——前提是你的姑妈还是位世界级的橄榄油大师。整个过程既专业又有趣。
至于那家餐厅……简直棒极了!餐桌布局在一片浪漫至极的花园中。每一道菜品都精美可口(我们特别喜欢尝试那些获得米其林星级的餐厅呢)。我真心希望Biolea最终能获得米其林评级,他们绝对有这个实力!他们为我搭配的无酒精鸡尾酒堪称完美;我的伴侣也非常喜欢那些精心搭配的葡萄酒。
这个家族的历史、天赋与学识汇聚在一起,才造就了这样一个美好的地方,实在令人钦佩。
我花时间写下这么长的评论,是因为他们真的值得所有赞誉。另外,我们在旅途中还预订了另一家高档餐厅——The Secret Gorge……虽然体验很有趣,但价格却是两倍之多,我们真心觉得理应反过来才对。我们认为Biolea的品质、料理水准以及专业程度都要出色得多,对于所享用的服务,我们也乐意支付更高的费用。
如果你在寻找一个完美的夜晚,那就是这里了!
