SENSING CRETE THROUGH TASTE, SMELL AND TOUCH

A sensory sensation for foodies and history lovers

The warm smell of baking bread blends with the aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans, the sweet scent of cinammon on cheese -pastries, the flavor rising from cups of herbal tea, the flower fragrances, the urban smells, the taste of historical and traditional foods and the perception of Chania through the sense of touch.
As we walk we'll try to understand the past and present of Chania  through the senses of smell, touch and a series of food tastings and histories that link Cretan food culture to food fashion, migration, power structures, economic imbalances, and culinary propaganda with specific attention to the racialised,  gendered and classed dimensions of taste, touch and smell.
