Spanakopita is normally made with dough in rural areas. In my island the women making it always use actual dough. In the city they are too lazy and make it with filo dough because its too easy.

3 things I wanna point out: 1. Spanakopita's filling and flavor usually depend on the origin of the maker. Greece may be a generally small country, but its regions are vast and the traditions quite endless. I am greek and sometimes i am amazed as to how different each part of greek cuisine can be. In my house, my mother always makes her spanakopita with loads of greek feta, in other parts of Greece they don't use feta at all. 2. Gyros is a big thing in Greece, and it is almost always a hit or miss, especially in Athens. The old timely, traditional gyros is made with just a few ingredients and sometimes no sauce, whereas the new version has always tzatziki sauce, french fries, with sometimes adding ketchup, mustard, mayo or even spice in the mix 3. Loukoumades is even harder to explain. Each house, if traditionally makes this sweet, has its own way of serving it. I, for example, love it with honey and walnuts, but i enjoy the occasional white chocolate on top. It has endless possibilities and i am sure some people started making the savory version of this. You just can't go wrong with loukoumades hahahaha. Thank you for coming to my TED TALK. Stay safe and enjoy Greece.!

Greek food is dope! The best European cuisine if you ask me. Also because im a meat eater so im really happy stepping into a Greek Restaurant. The Lukamades was it? I believe that the new, without a doubt be very tasty, probably is very different from what it actually should be. I’d like to try both some day.
