PITHOS Restaurant

Gazing across the tranquil Messenian Bay, our restaurant “Pithos” recalls a tradition of our region’s past – Pottery…

The origin of the word Pithos[/’piθos]describes the earthenware items like jars and cruses which is significant to the ancient method of storing food and beverage like olives,cheese, pork,wine. It is important to underline that these archaeological findings have been demonstrating the existance  of a wealthy and powerful ancient colony named Colonides…According to historical researches the economy of this ancient region was based on the art of pottery which a young Athenaean man named Collainos had taught to the locals in 191 b.C.

As of today, our restaurant takes the lid off, synthesizes the local ingredients and offers a modernized menu reminiscing the good old days of authenticity under the roof of fine simplicity.
