mythica

Well I have resolved to tell the local people this year if I find a problem, having read the posts this year about this subject!
trouble is, I never have with the Mythica - one of my favourites!

Just come back from San Stephanos for the 4th time! Went to Mythica. Ughhhh! Horrid meal! Never again! OK if you want English food.

We thought it was really good, when we were in SS in June. Went twice during our stay.

Mythica is fantastic, typical Greek food, perhaps you need Egyptian food Cleopatra.

Have to agree with Waspman and Bristol Boy, Our food last year was great and a mixed menu.
Typical Greek Food, some French or Italian style food -nice menu!
However, we never bothered with any English style dishes in San Stefanos as we do that at home!
Maybe you were just unlucky.

Just back and enjoyed the Mythica very much.

Have never had a bad meal at Mythica - very Greek food each time as well. We will be looking to go on Friday Night for our first meal this year.

It's not surprising we get mixed reports though - as we are all different and have different tastes,
however, Mythica seems to overwhelmingly get a high percentage of good reports compared to any bad ones - we never had anything but great meals there!

I've tried to hold back on this one but I can't now...

The food is ok, it's just that it's a bit dull compared to the other restaurants on offer. Reminds us of going to your Auntie's when you were little and you put on a polite wee smile to hide the fact you were bored stiff.

The reverse scenario would be Greek people setting up a Scottish restaurant in Edinburgh.....it just doesn't work.

IMHO

But "HE" is Greek! and cooks!

[Waspman]

Stick to the haggis loftyscot You clearly don't appreciate good Greek food

Let's face it - the food is infinitely better in Greece now than it was when I started going in the late 70s. All you could get then was a souvlaki made with pork that seemed to be infused with concrete and cold chips.

The overall standard of food in SS is excellent. In fact, outstanding at the price. Everywhere will have one dish that doesn't quite work, but then the attempt is better than the production-line food you get in a place like Sidari.

I know people get purist about "Greek" food - but in actual fact most of the "Greek" food in SS is a modified form for tourists. Who cares? Personally, I like Mythica, and the pork special was indeed special.

The food at Zorba's is good - but they could get away with serving wet cardboard to a high percentage of the women clients as long as O Vasilis or one of the other lads served it.

Very strange Jimbo, your posting on 21st August said:

Funny how people differ. I'd be a bit reluctant to go back to Mythica -

Is Er Indoors pulling the strings??

 

[Jimbo]

She hasn't pulled my string for ages.

She was less impressed then me.
