Massive portions at Avocado

Immaculate works of art at La Maison

Set high on a cliff top is the La Maison restaurant. This place is always packed so make sure to book your table in advance – you don’t want to miss out on the cured salmon or tuna with beet ragout. Meals here come out of the kitchen looking like works of art. It can be windy being so high up, so take a jacket or cardigan.

The food here is fresh and authentically Greek, with dishes like grilled octopus, orzo pasta, shrimp spaghetti – and roasted lamb – as popular favourites.
