Marina

In the district of Spilia in Corfu, lost in the narrow cantonments of the "Ovriaki" district, is a small diamond. The Marina tavern, which, thanks to the mammoth cuisine of the owner, is adored by both locals and foreigners living or passing by.

The winter space - an old tavern that recently passed into the hands of Marina, as she moved here from her old hangout - operates noon and night and is neat, with comfortable tables, beautiful dishes, elegant decoration, a bright green color on the walls, floral curtains , some interesting paintings in a corner, away from the usual "tourist decorations" positively predisposes you to be in a family space.

The manorial, solid and warm presence of the patron and her clean face wins you over with the first one. The service is immediate. The ingredients are all fresh - after all every morning Marina buys the food of the season on the market alone - the flavors are pure, with a preference for light cuisine, for the most part Corfiot recipes, but the executions are one and the same.

From the well-groomed list in the tavern of Marina we stood out, except for classic Corfiot dishes, the green salad with mushrooms, the continental pies (due to origin) with the handmade leaf, the aubergines with cheese in the oven and the fresh basil, but also the sardine fillets.

The summer some tables come out in the beautiful cantonment.

And if you catch her chat with Marina, you will have the opportunity to learn about her successes, when she tried on some of her winter trips to Corfiot cuisine in European capitals.
