Desserts that change every summer

Lefkos Pyrgos ("the white tower") in Chora has built a reputation far beyond the island for its desserts and drinks, thanks to a menu that is reinvented each year.

Its best-known creation is "tar and feathers": a warm handmade brownie with caramelised almonds and vanilla ice cream. Other years have brought apple crumble, crème brûlée and more.
