Barbecue meat and seafood are accompanied by rustic-chic salads such as artichokes with Parmesan in lemon-mustard vinaigrette, served on artfully mismatched crockery and followed by devilish chocolate brownies. Open April to mid-October

The Paraportiani church in fact is 5 churches all built in a compact complex. It is one of the most photographed buildings of Mykonos and an amazing combination of white against the blue of the sky and the sea. Its structure over time has metamorphosised into an organic mass that resembles at one point a sparkling white iceberg stranded on the shore or at other points a huge cake dripping with icing sugar. From Paraportiani, the Kastro and the western part of the promenade are very close. In this area is the municipality building with its red clay roof. From this location the visitor can enjoy a panorama of the promenade of Mykonos.
