Opening Glenti at Lazopoulakis Café-Mezedopoleio, Paleochora, with Nikos Polychronakis and Giannis Papadakis

A new café-mezedopoleio by the Paleochora bus station opens with a Saturday lunchtime glenti: lyra, laouto and bass from 13:00.

Paleochora gets a new meze spot, and it is opening the Cretan way: with musicians rather than ribbon. Lazopoulakis Sofoklis, a café-mezedopoleio by the KTEL bus station, throws its doors open on Saturday 14 November with a daytime glenti led by Nikos Polychronakis and Giannis Papadakis, backed by Giannis Giakoumakis on laouto and Andreas Konstantoudakis on bass. Music starts at 13:00, which makes it a long lunch with dancing rather than a late night, and a good excuse for a drive down to the south coast out of season.
