ATHENS GREEK FOOD TOUR! | Traditional Taverna Food, Greek Donuts and Gyros!

***Filmed before the COVID-19 outbreak***
Desserts are as an integral part of any cuisine as the most delectable savoury delights which is why today we're going to TWO legendary Athenian joints that serve a beloved Greek dessert: Loukoumades. We also continue our Athens food adventure and dine on some incredible traditional Greek taverna food at Epirus Tavern in the heart of Athens Central Market and experiment with modern Gyros at Hoocut! And finally, we tick off a few more Ancient Greek archaeological sights and soak up the history at the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the awe-inspiring Panathenaic Stadium!
Enjoy!

    Enjoyed your Greece videos. I was in US Air Force stationed on Crete for 8 years. I returned in 2018 after being away almost 30 years. My wife love it. I met some of my Cretan Friends. They treated us so well. Hopefully we can return in 2021.

    Tripe soup is very rich in collagen. 10-20 years ago when people drank a lot they used to eat tripe soup. The collagen forms a protective barrier in your stomach to help you with the nastiness of the alcohol

    The minty dimension might be because some add spearmint in their spanakopita recipe, others add dill or even fennel sprouts

    Tripe soup is usually consumed in the very early hours of the day after a long night of heavy drinking or as the first meal after a long fasting period as it's really good for the stomach 😉

    Spanakopita tends to had herbs like mint in it…it’s not the spinach that has the mint flavour, also the temple of Artemis at Ephesus, wonder of the ancient world was the largest Greek temple ever built
