Probably the most scenic and romantic restaurant in the Chania area, right on the beachfront, with the splash of the waves right next to you and the marine breeze caressing your skin . An absolute destination for fishfood. A bit away from city centre but worthes the visit.

Two types to choose from, one with cheese and sugar granules on top and the other with cream custard.

Cozy atmosphere, awesome desserts, and a more than magical view. Chocolate lava cake is the must have.
I 'd advise you to visit this cafe at off-peak times to avoid uproar.
(You can take the city bus leading to "Kounoudipiana" before the National Bank of Greece in the city centre, near the Puplic Market. You have to stop at "Venizelos' Graves"-ask the bus driver- and then walk about 200m to reach this place. Enjoy the best view of the town and find the pastry/coffeeshop "Koukouvaya". To return back to Chania, you have to take the bus from the same point)
