Oh, you make me so hungry! I had some when I visited Greece, but mostly when I lived in Nebraska. There was a little place in Omaha with the best Gyros I've ever had. Not like the skimpy ones we get out here with only 2-3 slices of meat – they were stuffed full of meat and came with chunked potatoes baked in butter and parsley, all for $1.59! Wonderful!


Wow $1.59 what a bargain. We have a place very near that sells Gyros and the price is $10.00 a sandwich. No potatoes, just the sandwich. Lots of meat but more than I want to spend.
Thanks for your comment.

Not yet - maybe in a few weeks or so. Just kidding and thanks for stopping.

Thank-you for such a heart warming comment. Remembering my mother and growing up in a Greek family makes it worth the the time it takes to make this ethnic food.


I understand your feelings. My Mom was Italian and I still enjoy preparing her dishes for family and friends. Her world revolved around family, friends and food.

Yes - mine was very similar and food was very special. Anyone coming to the house could not leave until they were given a special treat. Thanks for commenting.

Nice images but I don't recognize anything on those plates.


The pics may look strange if you are not familiar with Greek cuisine. Try it sometime and you may like the taste. Thanks for stopping

Greek food is probably my favorite. My daughter makes fabulous baklava and I could eat the whole pan myself.

Ever since seeing AP's posting of that wonderful Greek soup, I wanted to taste more Greek specialty foods. I got the recipes out, went to the Greek import store, bought the ingredients and started cooking. The wife was gone for the day and as long as I cleaned up, I would live for another day.

The pictures represent a pasta and meat dish called Pastitsio and stuffed grape leaves called Dolmades. The sides are Dodonis Greek feta, Large Kalamata olives, Tzaziki dipping sauce, and extra virgin olive oil from the island of Crete. Hope you like.
