Joel - The Burger King (at last)

Speech therapist, Richard, Broadcaster Annie and their son Joel have a house in the mountains behind Paleochora. We first met them 6 years ago just after we arrived here. For the past few summers, Joel has been trying (and narrowly failing) to attain the honour of being a Calypso Burger King (eating the lot, including fries with no help from friends, family or passing animals). Well, last night he did it! Bravo Joel! Posted by Picasa
Raymond is in Paleochora each year and is a regular Calypso customer. We always look forward to seeing him. This year, he is having a split holiday between here and the north coast of Crete.
Stephen and Olga met up with some old friends, Rik & Karen, by chance the other day and decided to celebrate the fact by having a meal and catching up in Calypso. Rik is a professional musician so, who knows, maybe he will give permission for some of his work to go on to our mix? Posted by Picasa

Ahoy there!

My little boys, Jojo & Freddie were very excited to be on a boat trip to spot dolphins (one of the neat things to do here while on holiday). Were unlucky on this occasion but there's always the next time.

Calypso Mix 2006

We feel that music is important when going out for a good time & we select a mix of music for the restaurant which we hope will appeal to a broad range of our customers.

We have had several requests for the playlists so.... we have the complete Calypso evening playlist (over 300 songs in WMA & MP3 format) on 2 CDs which cost 10 euros inc. p&p. Just send us a 10 euro note with your address by registered post if you want a copy to: Barry & Jenny, Post Restante, Paleochora 73001, Hania, Crete, Greece.


Unfortunately we can not suppy the playlist in standard audio format.
