Sfakian Pie: The Simple Flavour That Became a Symbol

Thin dough, fresh mizithra cheese and Cretan honey

Sfakian pie is one of the region’s signature tastes. Thin dough encloses soft mizithra cheese, is cooked in a pan and served warm with honey.

You will find it in many Sfakian tavernas and cafés. Its quality comes from simple local ingredients and the balance between lightly salty cheese and sweet honey.
