Fresh Portakalada and Donner somewhere near Kandanos in Crete

| Greece | 16 seen

There are times Google Maps doesn't help (in fact there are dozen of such times) - this time Google Maps street view didn't help either - after about 6 months since we returned from Crete, I'm still postprocessing a lot of photos, reviewing places (tourist attractions, hotels, and restaurants).

It was in the morning, we left Palaiochóra and headed towards Heraklion in our rental car. 

Somewhere near Kandanos we found this lovely roadside cafeteria serving Donner and Portokalada (I mistakenly thought it will be freshly squeezed orange juice, but it turned out local lemonade)

Sadly I cannot remember the place name and can't find this place on Google maps to add a pin.
