This thread is for the discussion of Greek food.

[Lord Notin Kwestion]

Love it.

[Basualdo]

Never tried it. What would you recommend?

Never tried it. What would you recommend?

I set this thread up for Ghost to share his expertise.

[Basualdo]

So you don't have any suggestions then?

[Reg]

Suggestions about what?

[Basualdo]

Greek scran.

[Reg]

Not really, no.

Going route one, but it is gorgeous and easy to make. Lamb Kleftiko:



Gyros, sort of Greek kebabs are lovely as is couscous with roasted veg and feta. Bought a book called 'Cretan Cooking' when in Crete but haven't really done much from it. Will endeavour to do more.

[The Ghost of Alex Higgins]

It's great

The last time we went to a Greek restaurant, one of the party nearly caused a riot by asking for a Turkish coffee.

It's great

I want to believe.

However...

I have been to various Greek islands over the years, without tasting good food.

I have also been to a few Greek restaurants, without tasting good food.

I also lived with a Greek woman (well, her parents were Greek), but she didn’t cook Greek food (or anything else much).

Suggestions as to where to find GOOD Greek food, please.

I've never had Greek food. Tarama...tarams..., Tanita Tikaramsalata. Ah do struggle with names of Greek food items.

Food in southern Cyprus was magnificent. Ate a a different place every night, and you had a hard job to split them on quality.
