What can I say. The Meni gets better every year. I first discovered it at the end of a very long first day repping. MIKE gave me a coffee, made me sit down and drink it then got his son to drive me back to my apartmment. From then it became my favourite hideaway (the pool is to the rear of the restaurant with dining facilities overlooking it) I have tried all the other restaurants in Tingaki and none come close to the friendliness of The Meni. All the staff, Gabriel, Cia, Irene, Kiriakos and Christos make you feel as if you are their best guests. I'm biased because they are all like family but I noticed that they are the same with everyone (I just get more kisses )  This year I took my 17 month old daughter and found the restaurant to be extremely child friendly (to the point of borrowing a highchair from the place over the road 1 exceptionally busy night) Nothing is too much trouble. The food is fantastic especially the Indonesian dish Nasi Goreng (okay not Greek but delicious anyway) As has been said previously service can be a bit slow on busy nights but I'd rather that and have fresh food than something on the table in 5 minutes that's obviously been microwaved. Anyway you're on holiday, what's the rush?? Have a great season and I'll see you all next year.

My fourth holiday in Tingaki and The Meni remains my favourite restaurant. The English Breakfast is fantastic value for money. Loads of toast with jam, tea, orange juice, then your usual sausage, egg, bacon and beans all for £3. Mmmmm great start to the day. The staff are very friendly and have a great memory for faces. I don't normally like eating in the same restaurant more than once on holiday as it's nice to experince others but somehow I end up at The Meni at least 2 or 3 times. Only thing missing this year was Mike the very welcoming chef (in America this year)

The perfect beach for forgetting the UK. If you don't fancy laying amongst the beds then just walk a little way to the right and you can normally find a nice piece of beach that's very quiet and almost deserted. Word of warning though, walk left and it's just as peaceful, with the added bonus of a few sand dunes but along this stretch of beach cossies are not compulsory!!!!
