The “Hani of Souflia”

In the depths of the lush green landscape of Trikala, between two imposing mountains, the Koziacas and the Itamos, on the banks of the quiet river Portaikos, in the middle of a beautiful settlement, there is a cluster of tufted maple trees and century-old plane trees. Under their thick shade, the silence of nature is punctuated by the sounds of laughter and conversation, small gatherings and family moments, in harmony with the forest and drawing on its tranquillity. These are the sounds of the tables that spread the “Hani tou Souflia“, of Eleni Souflia and Alexios Stromattia, in the picturesque Porta Panagia, which once was a passage for travelers heading to Epirus, but today is a destination in itself, thanks to the traditional flavors that this special restaurant passes through a modern prism.

Here, with the kitchen supported and sustained by small producers in various parts of Greece, the most unique goodies become the basis of playful cuisine, where the flavors of yesterday meet the inspirations of today, always with a love for seasonality and the cycles of nature as a guide.

Thus, along with the appropriate bottled wines and spirits, tender fillets of fine pork, embraced by a sauce of rosemary, served alongside traditional Trikala sausages with leek or pappardelle with mushroom sauce and truffle oil, in a menu that is constantly renewed, making every visit to “Hani tou Souflia” a new, unforgettable experience.
