From the video
Girit Seyahat Rehberi 🇬🇷 | Heraklion’da Gezilecek Yerler, Bougatsa, Knossos & Taverna · Oğuz Yenihayat
Oğuz Yenihayat emphasized that Crete is distinct from other Greek islands due to its massive size and its culinary focus on lamb and goat meat rather than just seafood. He was particularly impressed by the traditional slow-cooking methods at a local taverna and the historical depth of the Palace of Knossos.
