The great foods here were definitely a highlight of the trip for me! Everything was delicious!! Thanks for watching!! 👍 👍
Thanks for recommending. My experience was the food in Athens is so great that I enjoyed every single place that I have tried, including those small shops that are not well known. The famous place that you recommended for loukoumades only sells them in boxes of 10 which can be too much for one or two persons. I like loukoumades but I cannot eat that many. I managed to find another place in Koukaki which you can order one or two pieces, the place was called Tzatzos.

Yes! It was a lot for me as well. I really wanted to go here since I read really good reviews online and most of the locals recommended it as well. Thanks for your tip about Tzatzos, I will have to try it out next time I return to Athens. Thanks for watching! 👍

baklava was first created in ancient Greece, which spread with the Romans and Byzantines there are ancient Greek writings that mention it, such as the Dinner Sophists of Athens with the name,,kataplakus,,
Is it gyros or souvlaki?

What I was eating here in the video was what the locals refer to as gyros! If you say this when ordering they will know what you mean 😊👍 Thanks for watching!

Souvlaki is the general name of the dish. Gyros is the souvlaki with the "shaved" meat. Kalamaki is the souvlaki with the pieces of meat.

my greek experience was not so great. While the greek food does appear nice, it is extremely greasy and high in calories. Plus, the cost of food was exorbitant unless i ate the cheap veggie gyros...Athens does get hot and humid and is congested...being a vegetarian, my choices were limited everywhere i went tks ...

With all due respect, that is absolutely not what you said. Go back to 7:24 and you will hear yourself say balakava. Please don't even try, I am fully Greek and I know what my ears heatd. It's okay that you mispronounced it, but it's not okay to lie in your comments. If you don't want anybody commenting, then just turn off the comment section.@@GiseliRodas

As a Greek, I will write a few negative comments which you will not like. sorry ! You simple do not know Greek Food ! 01:29 - Gyros is such a well-known street-food you are not telling us anything new. You get that in all places where there are Greeks. - It is best to take the french fries separate as they cover the tasteof the lamp or chicken. 02:47 - Thanasis Restaurant is not something special, it is located in a good place for sure and is the classic 'tourist trap'. The food is ok but nothing to write home about ! 09:36 - Loukoumades is also a well-known stret food ... Nothing new abou it ! 12:10 - A Greek salad is nothing new, you get it in all corners of the globe, It is overpriced because of the demand! `We call it Choriatiki (Vilager's salad) and not Greek Salad, Only the tourists call it 'Greek salad' 12:14 - Mousaka in restaurants is not good! Why, They use beef and not lamb meet and also add bread crums to create volume ! 12:29 - Those drinks are not Tequilas, The clear drink is 'Rakki' (made frm grapes after the grape juice is extracted to make wine.). The yellow is Limoncello which is Italian drink and not Greek at all. --------------------------- So you ask ! If you are so critical, why not make some proposotions for restaurants ! Here is my listing ! - Stani for Breakfast, Since 1932 - O Theios Mathaios, best lamb Souvlaki - Klimataria Taverna (Psyri) Lamb with potates, baked on waxed paper, Great Moussaka, Live music on weekends - Bougatsadiko, Psyri, Thesaloniki style bougatsa with cream - it is very good !
