And, just in case you missed it, there was a very wonderful Greek treat on @SaturdayKitchen this morning in the hands of the exuberant @jollyolly!

The Lyrarakis Voila Assyrtiko is a wonder, and also featured in the column of @PlanetVictoria today too.

Spring days are here and even though we might be staying at home, we can still enjoy them and travel around Crete through flavours! Cook, be creative and playful, try out a recipe you never tried before and of course enjoy your wine!
