It's kserotigana and raki. Kserotigana are actually fritters with honey and almonds. They are very popular in Crete (you can view more about my place here  https://youtu.be/wxkc-02Tw-M) and they are served on festive occasions, including Christmas, Easter, weddings, baptisms or you can eat them any time if you have an appetite for those! Raki is a rather strong alcohol beverage that we drink in shots. Raki is also called tsikoudia and is served on almost every occasion. This Cretan drink is a symbol of friendship and nobility and a sign of social communication. It is served almost naturally after every meal as it is good for digestion also.
