A native of Sudan and descendant of African workers since the Egyptian occupation in Crete, Salis, called “Helidonakis” (Swallow) by the Cretan natives, was a hero of his time. He worked from a toddler as a boatman, unloading passengers and luggage at the shallow port of Chania, whose depths were not suited for mooring ships. He loved Greece and Crete and refused to resign in the population exchan

ge of 1922, getting his British citizenship. Amongst the few Muslims that remained, he graced the town with his warm and inviting smile, kind heart, and generosity. A real life “Robin Hood," sans thieving; every penny he earned he shared with those less fortunate. He will always be remembered on the “limani” (port) with his broad grin and half-lit pipe. Now a local restaurant, as a chic alternative to its neighboring taverns, Salis takes an innovative turn on traditional Cretan gastronomy. The dishes are modern yet nostalgic, lavishly showcasing nature's menu. An artistic and unique dining experience, the calming sea and comforting aromas are sure to stimulate the senses.

Happy 11th Wedding Anniversary to my incredible wife. Looking at these photos from our wedding day, especially the moment we kissed in the field, I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for the last eleven years. We’ve built a life fuller than I ever imagined—complete with our three wonderful children, countless adventures traveling the globe, and a home full of laughter. Every creative moment we share makes me fall in love with you all over again. Thank you for being my constant partner, my muse, and my favorite adventure. I love you. ❤️🥂

From the soil of the Salis garden straight to our kitchen. Right now is the absolute peak season for purslane—crisp, refreshing, and bursting with local summer flavor. There is nothing quite like ingredients grown just steps away from where they are served.
