Monica, who took the order, was friendly and good-humoured, and with the bread came a spread of small appetisers - olives, a spicy cheese and breadsticks. Hans had a tuna pizza and his companion the pasta with mushrooms and truffles; the pasta was fine and the pizza good, though heavy on cheese in the Greek manner and light on tuna. At the end the table got a basket of grappa, a lemon liqueur and a berry liqueur. His verdict was 8 out of 10. ## Gorgona Restaurant, Faros _Photo: Gorgona restaurant on Faros beach, Sifnos_ _Photo: Gorgona restaurant on Faros beach, Sifnos_ _Photo: Gorgona restaurant on Faros beach, Sifnos_ _Photo: Gorgona restaurant on Faros beach, Sifnos_ _Photo: Gorgona restaurant on Faros beach, Sifnos_ Gorgona sits on the beach of Faros, in the south of Sifnos. The menu runs to chicken, meat, fish, spaghetti, salads and starters. Hans ordered a salad and two chicken souvlaki; despite the quiet it took a long time to arrive, but the chicken was tender and the fries crisp, and the Greek music was good. The service felt unwelcoming and, unusually for Greece, no small dessert or drink came with the bill. Hans still left a tip. His verdict was 7 out of 10 - good food, but unfriendly service. ## Where to eat by area Beyond the two restaurants above, most villages have tavernas of their own. Use this as a guide to where to look; opening dates matter, since many places open only from June. Kamares The ferry port and the liveliest year-round choice - quayside tavernas, cafes and the pizzeria Da Claudio, a short walk from the potteries and the beach. Apollonia The capital, whose lanes hold the island's densest run of tavernas, ouzeries and cafes, busy into the evening. Artemonas Quieter tables among the gardens and mansions, a short walk from Apollonia. Kastro A handful of small tavernas and cafes in the car-free old capital, several with a view over the sea from the cliff edge. Faros Beach tavernas by the harbour, including Gorgona, open early in the season - a good bet in May. Platis Gialos & Vathi Beach tavernas on the south coast, most opening from June; Vathi has a taverna right on the sand.
