Eating Greek Street Food in Thessaloniki Greece 😋

- Eating Greek Street Food! We headed out to the streets of Thessaloniki in search of amazing Greek street food!
To start things off we had a dish we’ve never heard of or tried before, bougatsa, which is traditionally a breakfast food made of phyllo pastry and custard.
The second thing we tried was Koulouri- which is similar to a bagel - a circularly shaped bread covered in sesame seeds.
Next up were some delicious greek pies.
We struggled a bit trying to find some gyro pitas, but ended up setting for gyro plates, which is essentially like a deconstructed gyro.
Lastly we headed for some dessert to finish things off. This one is called Trigona Panoramatos and can be found at most pastry shops in Thessaloniki.

Hello from Thessaloniki siti north Greece. 👍♥
@Ilija Stojanoski salta kai GAMISOY MORON ZOON !!!!!MACEDONIANS =GREEKS! !!!BY A GREEK MACEDONIAN THESSALONIKI SITI GREECE 🇬🇷GEORGIADIS HARRIS
@Ilija Stojanoski You're just an uneducated nationalist. Macedonia is Greek,you have your own country,your own language and your own culture,focus on that and raise your country.
Koulouri used to be sold with small pieces of feta cheese on the side (until the late ‘60s)
Macedonia is a Greek province, located in Northern Greece. It has always been Greek and the way to distinguish it is that Macedonians spoke Greek, worshiped Greek gods and considered themselves to be greek.
Everything else is just a desperate attempt to forge history and claim it due to Slavic people’s lack of own history and identity.
STOP STEALING OUR HISTORY AND IDENTITY
I am Indian and I have visited Athens and Thessaloniki. I think Thessaloniki is much more serene and friendly city.
As for Greek, everything is nice about Greece not just food
I agree the girls are so much more friendlier and good looking in Thessaloniki lol
@@eurosensazion all Greek girls are beautiful and Greek girls have good values especially family values.
@@Ranjitkumar-ut4nj lol well some like every culture. Thing is to find that one with good values and sense of family. Just like guys.
I’m from Greece... Oh boy you are so innocent
Thank you
This is a very good presentation of Thessaloniki's street food.
The pie is indeed Spanakopita, the Gyros cost 7€ because it was a portion, while a wrap costs up to 3€.
The desert "trigona Panoramatos" translates as 'triangles from Panorama', Panorama being a suburb with a panoramic view of the city.
>up to 3€
*cries in inflation*
... Greece and its islands is the most beautiful country in the world! 😘💒🇬🇷 ...
We agree entirely - Trevor
You forget ITALY....
@@simona1648 Ιtaly for the monuments and Greece for the beaches... I love both.
@@eleniasimop also in south Italy there are wonderful beaches...Puglia, Sardegna, Sicily and Ischia ... go and see!
About the food no one can beat us..
@@simona1648 Also greece there too
Thessaloniki was my favourite city in Greece...loved the place.
It just might be ours now as well Robocop 🤖👮♀️- Trevor
i got beat up for wearing the wrong colors there so idk what you mean
Wait till you see Rhodes 😍😍😍
Some tips from a greek person:
The reason you did not get a wrap is because you asked for "gyro" which in greek refers to just the meat part (gyro means rotation or "around" in greek, therefore any meat cooked this way be it pork/chicken etc is called gyro) . If you want to get the wrap, then you will have to ask for a "pita gyro" which specifies that you are asking for the gyro wrap :)
Also, if you want to get the classic filling (pita bread, pork, tzatziki, potatoes, tomato, onion) you can order a "pita gyro ap ola"--> literally means pita gyro with everything.
love and support greece from Armenia
I'm so glad you enjoyed the food in my city! I love to see Thessaloniki get some tourist love! Especially for our food scene which is wonderful! To answer some of your questions and give some extra information:
The spinach pie you were eating which you called a spanakopita (btw it's pronounced spanaKOpita and definitely not spanakoPIta haha) is of course also just called that in Greek (written σπανακόπιτα). That category of "pies" are colectively just called Pitas (just like the bread which, I know, is confusing to foreigners). So a spanakopita is just a spanaki(spinach) pita; if it had just cheese it would be a tiropita or a tiri (cheese) pita and so on.
Koulouri bread that you compared to a Montreal bagel (which I totally agree is a great comparison) actually goes bad to ancient times in one form or another, but it's modern form and popularity do indeed come from when Greeks living in Anatolia (wester and norther Turkey) were forced to leave and migrate to Greece. It was a terrible time, but they did bring with them wonderful food and music that just different enough from other Greeks to create amazing blends of food and culture. Also, we don't ever butter them (butter isn't a big thing in Greece since we have olive oil). That kind of coulouri we usually just eat dry like that while we're drinking coffee in the morning. Especially when their still warm... It's the best! There is another version of the koulouri made a little differently with cheese inside of it which is also delicious.
Also, not that you have any reason to know this, but the "phyllo" dough that you're pronouncing as FA-ee-low dough is actually pronounce FEE-low :)
Anyway, cheers and I hope you had a wonderful trip!
Nikolas Floros woh such great info here. Thanks for all of this Nikolas. We loved the food in Thessaloniki. We had better food here than in Athens so we are big fans of your city - Trevor
❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌
Or coulouri with hazelnut cream and cocoa
filled is awesome.!!!!!.also try some "τσουρεκι" = "Greek sweet bread" at the same last shop that you bought trigona panoramatos,also with crazy fillings.Give our home food a try to get excited vellum
,such as "gemista","papoutsakia" and many others to keep you here in Thessaloniki.!!!!!.Also very nice video with good critics about my beloved city.Also try some of these donuts in there (instagram: @jerrysthefoodtruck) the name of the shop and have got aaaawesome things.!!!!.Welcome again and again to our home.!
Γεια σου φίλε Νικόλα.
sorry for correcting you, but if you want to edit your comment, since it was so nice and informative the phrase below sounded like the koulouri goes bad and I didn't want to badmouth it. ;)
You wrote: "bagel.. ..actually goes bad to ancient times"
it took me a minute to realise that their phy-low meant filo 😄😄
I'm from Melbourne - the home of Greeks outside of Athens, lol - and I love Greek food. My favs are bougatsa (with pear) and semolina cake with rosewater syrup. I don't know how traditional they are or if they're a Greek / Australian hybrid; as is often the case. My non-sweet fav is simple chargrilled octopus and saganaki 😊😊❤❤
Damn, I want a bougatsa now!
haha sorry about that - Anna
I’m hungry
Bougatsa in the greek language is Μπουγάτσα (=bougatsa)
You should...
Good idea. I'm going to everest to buy one.( two)
Greece = best cousine and street food in the world
I don't think so
Alayını çalmışsınız
@@umitozgur3386 your opinion...
@@umitozgur3386 come to Greece and then think about it
@Dimitra Kupraiou Dont be mean.Μη γινεσε κακος
Glad you liked my birthplace! Thessaloniki has the biggest university of the country (Aristotle) with like 75k students, that's why cheap streed food thrives. Most foods are inspired from Asia Minor which was Greek for thousands of years and today is modern Turkey, population forced to move out of there because of the massacares (my grandparents too) and opened restaurants and shops here, this is why the city has an eastern-like orientation towards most foods. Sadly if you are vegan you don't have many choices, probably you would go for a Falafel or a pita with potatoes, although last years more vegan restaurants are opening here and shows some promise.
I don't know if you ever tried it, but next time you're in Greece and specifically, Thessaloniki, try Tsoureki with Chestnut from Terkenlis! It is the best thing ever!!!
THAT'S WHY I GOT 20 KILOS IN THE PAST 5 YEARS........
haha.. yeah we better hit the gym! haha - Trevor
Ahahaha
If you do not eat after five in the afternoon, absolutely nothing, and at the main meal getting up from the table a little hungry, you will lose 15 kg
Once on a Saturday, I ate both in the afternoon and at parties with friends. Self-restraint and everything in proportion.
In the afternoon if you are very hungry take some dry bread or biscuit.
Not many drinks. Lots of salad with food. You will see the result in a few months.
Monitor your weight twice a week.
And you'll be okay.
TasTh thats why i Got 20 kilos in the last 2 months
I married a greek woman and live in Athens with her. 20 kilos...I'm at least 10 on you lol.
Go to Terkenlis for tsoureki with chestnut and white chocolate! BTW why dont you visit the OTE tower for a coffee! You ll enjoy the view! Assuming you re still here in Thessaloniki of course!
We're not there any more but maybe next time we will. Thanks for the tip - Anna
+1 for the whit choco tsoureki!
Terkenlis has the worst service and the most overrated, overpriced food in Thessaloniki. I have chosen to boycott them for the rest of my life, and I recommend the same approach to anyone who loves excellent food and attentive service.
xeniosaias έλα μωρέ...δεν χρειάζεται να πληρώσεις τα πανάκριβα τσουρέκια του τερκενλη. Υπάρχουν ένα σωρό συνοικιακοι φουρνοι που φτιάχνουν υπέροχο τσουρέκι με κάθε είδους γέμιση και κάλυψη. Και να ξέρεις ότι σαν εργοδότες στου τερκενλη, είναι..... άστα...
@@DelightfulTravellers Don't,Terkenlis has the worst quality, it's tasty but with the worst ingredients and the highest price. Also OTE tower is very expensive,if you want a cafeteria with great view you should go to Pasha's gardens close to the great walls of the city.
when I'm drunk in Thessaloniki, and it's not winter time to go for a patsa (meat soup) which helps with hangover, I buy 4:06 coulouri from local bakeries. Bakeries get coulouri right off the oven at around 5 , 5:30 in the morning. So imagine a hot coulouri on my left hand, and a cold feta cheese on my right. I love this combination. Tastes of Thessaloniki
Thessaloniki is a very nice city. Its not only about the food. It's about the people. Warm. Friendly, like the hospitality and etc.
trigona Panoramatos from Elenidis are the best!
Just stumbling upon ruins. So Greece. Love it. And that custard dessert!
It just might be our favourite country Steve. Thanks for your comments as always - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers LOL. For me Greece is third. Behind Italy and Brazil. But not far behind. I love Rhodes and Crete.
@@stevefraser1409 Rhodes is happening! 🤫
@@stevefraser1409 Italy has better cities but Greek beaches can’t compare
As for the greek pie in greece spinach is "spanaki" and in this dish, pie is "pita" so the dish is called "spanakopita" or sometimes "spanakotiropita" because it has feta cheese in it. You can find 1000 variations of this dish around greece as the thickness, the ingredients and the dough we use vary ,but mostly, it tastes like heaven and is sooo healthy
We don't have as a traditional food "koulouri" with melted butter but you should try feta cheese with sesame seeds and honey it soooo good
Oh that sounds amazing. I bet that would be delicious - Anna
Feta is wrapped in a thin layer of crust phyllo (yes the one used in the custard cones you ate, just salty) and fried in olive oil, or you can find it dipped in kourkouti (a mixture of plain wheat flour and water) and then fried, with the addition of sesame and honey.
OMg yes I have tried it and it tastes awesome #greece
Love Greece, been travelling there for 20 + years, Avery special country, great videos, keep it up.🇬🇷
You are so good guys! Thank you for visiting our city and for all the positive comments. You are always welcomed here. ❤️
Thanks.. we'll be back eventually 😃- Trevor
14:10 Trigona Panoramatos, it means Triangles of Panorama, a suburb of Thessaloniki were this, was first made. The same shop has Tsoureki, a sweet bread, try the one with chessnut cream and white chocolate its really nice
You guys are adorable, you made me miss my hometown. I love watching people enjoy it , you ate all my favourites. Thanks for taking me with you guys !! ♥️
You're welcome 🤗- Anna
Just discovered your channel today. I had a wonderful Greek vacation this summer that ended with a day in Thessaloniki before I flew to London and back home to the US. I wish I had spent more time in the city and loved your 2 videos on it, some spots I visited and some I didn't. I had the trigona dessert as well!
Well welcome aboard first off 🤗It's so great you found our channel. This city is great and get ready for a whole lot more on Greece for the next month or so - Anna
I'm from Rhodes greece and the last store you visit (terkenlis) we don't have it.. Every time I have a friend that is visiting Thessaloniki I order to bring me some tsoureki with chestnut and chocolate... I love that so much
I think that the most common thing one can notice in "Macedonia" Airport in Thessaloniki are the nylon bags from Terkenlis filled with tsourekia (brioche like sweet pastry) people take with them in the other parts of Greece :P
Aaaahhhh Rhodes...my favorite island💙🇬🇷
ugh i LOVE seeing people from abroad trying greek good and actually liking it!!
My sis lived in the Evosmos and Stavroupoli districts of Thessaloniki for over 25 years, and first on my hit list when I got there were the totally delicious gyros! I miss it there so much now.
THOSE STREET FOODS ARE SO DELICIOUS YUM YUM
KEEP IT UP GUYS AND KEEP SAFE ALWAYS
You are the sweetest thing ever! Love from Thessaloniki. You did a great job👌
So nice video!! I am from Thessaloniki and watching the video made me want to go out and eat! We have great food all over Greece but you have to know which restaurant or shop has the best. You seem to pick the good ones! For history, trIgona is a dessert that is made from a man called Elenidis from the region Panorama Thessalonikis. So the most known trigona in town are from Elenidis. But many other dessert shops have also good ones. You also have to visit the east part of the city, like Vaphopoulou street - Sofouli street - Marina of Krini region for a nice walk and food. ( Sorry for my English guys! )
Everybody gets crazy when they try greek food and they don't even know the good places !!
Αυτό ρε.

Thank you so much guys for this amazing video! We still have some issues in town, especially with this subway construction.... I hope next time, if you come again, to enjoy the city more! Take care!
My friends thank you for supporting Greece!Greek word for pie is 'pita' spinachpie=spanakopita.
Hi Trevor and Anna this was a really nice food tour of the greek specialties I have had these all of my life growing up
So jealous. Greek's cuisine might be our fav Effie. It's all so tasty! - Anna
@@DelightfulTravellers Thank you Anna
Guys you’re amazing ..!!! I just found out about your channel and I’m obsessed...!!! Thessaloniki is amazing ( I leave here ) but they are sooo many beautiful cities to visit . You should definitely visit Meteora and Mount Olympus of couse ..!!! Love your work keep going 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
Woohoo! Welcome to the channel Christina. Glad you found us! We have A LOT of Greek content coming. We're off to the islands next! 🤗- Anna
Wow you picked some of the best places to eat in my city! I'm so glad!
Thank you for making this video and for showing my city and all the delicious food we enjoy here. It is worth tasting it believe me. Really nice video.
You should try
0. Eat Peinirli as for breakfast. You can find them in almost all bakeries
1. Tsinari , during midday to try local alcohol called tsipouro with seafood meze
2. Try and buy the sweets called Revani (or Revani Veroias), also Galaktompoureko, the sweet bread called Tsoureki from Terkenlis and again the Trigono, but this time from the store called Elenidis.
3. A trip until Peraia Thessalonikis if the weather is good to sit next to the sea and eat fresh seafood (be aware that their English might not be good there)
4. Late during nightime in Bit Bazaar for cheap wine and later for a souvlaki or panseta in the Mama Teresa
5. You can also refer in your video on the cheap meals you can get as a student in the street called Melenikou close to the Universities, as Thessaloniki is a student town
6. Last but not least eat Crepe in Nauarinou street from Valentino. A salty Crepe with everything you might choose from the buffet over there. You will love it
Thanks for the great tips. Next time! - Anna
Just discovered your channel and love it! We've been adding so many things to our list of things to do in Greece when we get there next month based on your videos. Thanks for sharing!!
Welcome to the channel! - Anna
In my fathers schooltime back in the 50s 60s he would always get a koulouri for breakfast or from a street on the way to school.
Thats so kind for you to say im happy because im Greek and our kitchen is world famous
Thank you UA-cam recommendations! Glad you enjoyed my city! It has its ups and downs, but food will rarely disappoint you ;)
So cool you found us through recommendations. Hope you continue to follow along 😃 - Anna
You are very lucky, you are in Greece and you are in Thessaloniki that is the best food destination in Greece. Enjoy
We really loved the food here DJ. It's so so good! - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers from 1900 till today Thessaloniki is a multicultural city. Greeks Jewish Armenian and Pontiacs lived harmonically here. All those bring here their love for food and trade and that is the main reason that will find nowhere in Greece food like that 😀
@@DelightfulTravellers" Pontiacs" are not an ethnicity my friend. Pontiacs are Greeks for thousands of years...
@@thelegend4827 Most of them are Greeks but some of them are also Russians or even Turkish. Generally Pontiac culture is based on the Greek culture.
@@DelightfulTravellers The entire Greece has delicious dishes,but to be fair-even though i was born and live in Athens- the best food on earth belongs to Crete!!!!If you haven't visited that wonderful greek island in the southest part of Greece,then you know nothing about greek food,beauty of landscapes and hospitality....
Drooling over the food...I absolutely love bougatsa...I want some now 😝💖
Trigona Panoramatos means, Panorama (a suburb of Thessaloniki) triangles (cause of the shape) !! They are creamier than bougatsa because they make it with half cow and half buffalo milk !! The older days they used 100% Buffalo milk !! Terkenlis is popular for his variety of Tsoureki (sweet fluffy bread with vanilla, mastic,cardamom and almond taste and different chocolate or other sweet stuffings)!!!! Mmmmm!!!! 😃 By the way, awesome Greek food taste/review !!!
I just ate a trigono panoramatos and then I watched your video😂😂 have a nice time in our country😀😀
Do You Speak Greek? We are loving it here. The food is 👌 - Trevor
Love it! Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for watching! 🤗 - Trevor
This is so nice and so true to the great food of Thessaloniki!!
Very good job guys!!
Κeep going like this!! Thessaloniki he is the best city on Greece.
Thanks so much! - Trevor
GREETINGS FROM THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY AND TOWN SKG🇬🇷🇬🇷❤️💪🏽
It's a nice old town, my hometown...
Thank you so much !!!! From the bottom of my heart!!!
🤗
The pie is spanakopita (σπανακόπιτα) you can eat and with feta cheese (τυροπιτα).
Yummy.
The last food is trigona panoramatos.
The best koulouri is sold by the older men selling on the streets. While visiting family I would get one almost everyday with a greek coffee. The spinach cheese pie was almost definitely spanakopita. The cheese version is called tiropita (tiri=cheese, pita=pie).
I am from Greece but live abroad. I definitely go crazy on gyros and freddo cappucino whenever I visit my country.
So nice seeing you go to my place! ❤️😭
Hope you liked your stay! ❤️
Σας αγαπώ! (I Love You!)
We loved it there! Thanks for watching - Anna
Now you just realized, why there are no Mc donalds restorants in Thessaloniki! :p
@lostintimeline no there's not. There is one near airport, and one to the other side, at the edge of town. In a city more that a million, there is no mc Donald's down town.
McDonalds failed in Greece because of Souvlaki and Gyros
@lostintimeline www.forbes.com/sites/panosmourdoukoutas/2014/06/24/mcdonalds-lost-the-greek-market-is-starbucks-next/#27b6cb8541c3
@lostintimeline Technically one of the mcdonalds is outside the city. Kind of. The other is in One Salonica Mall (top floor) which is definitely within the city limits. :p
There used to be more of them. Same with KFC. Now there is only one KFC, outside the city.
έχει στο one salonica και προς ΙΚΕΑ νομίζω
Thessaloniki the best city..!!!
I love bougatsa!!!
You agree..?
This was a yummy food tour!
Oh it was delicious! 😋 - Anna
Can’t believe I’ve just found you guys, you’re real, love your comments on the food , well done 👍
Welcome to our channel! 😀
By the way the spanakopitta you ate is the village kind. (horiatiki) The pastry is homemade by aome giagia or granny and now it is sold in the supermarkets. They also make cheese pies in the same way with horiatiko filo. (village pastry). They all fall under the pie category which is quite extensive in greece and we love our pies, all sorts of them, village ones, twisted ones, crispy filo ones, round ones, with all our greek cheeses, feta, graviera, mizithra etc. or pies without filo, you name it we make it.
Theres a place called " elenidis" that makew THE BEST " little cones " as you refered to them . You should definitely go try them they are much much better than the ones from the place you got them
Thanks for the tip Pavlina! - Trevor
Spot on!
You are correct, "Elenidis" has won rewards for his trigona, he is the best!!!!
freddos in greece is a new thing for us the greeks too, its invented 6-7 or so years ago, we used to drink frappe ice coffee which was way less tasty and way less healthy, nice videos you do thank you for keeping us nice company
Great video guys! You went to my favourite places for food!! I'm from Thessaloniki, but i live now in London! Checking your Greek playlist now! xx

So glad we picked it too! So so good.. yum - Anna
And Thessaloniki's best ice-cream shop is right opposite. Shame they missed it.
@@lon1117 which shop you mean, Konstantinidis???
Sorry man, but Giannis is one of the best bougatsa shops in the down town area for students that study here from other places in Greece,but if you ask the locals nobody eats from here. The best bougatsa shops are in the western side of the town e. g Bougatsa Panos and Georgos. You can even see the highest score they have amongst other shops in Thessaloniki if you do a Google search.
@@mkourouk locals also eat there,in the center maybe is the best.
In the western side maybe panos and Giorgos are better but in the deep center Gianni's for me is the best,it's recommended to me by a local.
Thanks for making this video about Thessalonikis street food , mpougatsa is my favorite and i love it , sweet or not you can always eat it with cold cacao

Hi guys, just to fill you in a little. The koulouri you definately can eat it with cheese. Thats how greeks eat it for breakfast or a quick lunch with a good cheese.
Nice! I hope you enjoyed your stay in Thessaloniki a lot. Trigono means triangle and Panorama is a suburb outside the city. Thanks for sharing!
So great to know! Thanks for watching - Anna
Oh yeah! I miss bougatsa so much!
New viewer! Thanks for taking me along with you.
well,i was born and lived here for my hole 35 year life.You guys are so enjoyable to watch.I love the way you look each other when the other one is speaking.shows much love and respect.Thessaloniki was actyally one of the 3 biggest cities in Europe (for many years beeing number 1,alongside Rome and Constantinoupole) from 0 to 1200ad.Next visit should be in Chalkidiki.The best place in Greece for summer.Amazing beaches,beach bars,crystal clear blue waters etc.A paradise 1 hour away from Thessaloniki.Keep upe the good work guys and have fun!
some hard yellow cheese in thin slices is the best with koulouri!
The places you chose are all the correct options; I've seen so many vloggers just randomly choosing places and recommending them for no reason.
Oh wow the food there in Greece looks fantastic, gyro are my most favourite wrap/sandwich also. It’s funny because here in Australia, we call those souvlaki. That dessert at the end had me drooling 🤤. Love you guys, you two are so humble. 🥰
"Souvlaki" it is called wrongly in Athens.
"Souvlaki" is actually a small kebab.
"Gyros" on the other hand is the pork or chicken meat slices.
"Pita gyros" is the sandwich with the meat slices.
"Pita souvlaki" is the sandwich with the small kebab.
But in Athens they are lazy with words so instead of "pita gyros" they say "souvlaki"... And when they order the small kebab alone without the sandwich they say "kalamaki" instead of "souvlaki"...
Hilariously, "kalamaki" is the small piece of wood penetrating the meat
We call that souvlaki in Canada too. haha... omg that dessert though. So good! - Anna
Joseph Modiotis that is so interesting lol

Η καλαμιά αναφέρεται συνήθως σε ποικιλίες του Arundo Donax που... δεν έχει σχέση με το bamboo σου.

Home sweet home 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷 thank you guys!
Pita is a Greek word for pie although I think we have very different definitions of what a pie is 😂 basically it's layers of fyllo dough with different kinds of fillings. The way we name any kind of pie is by combining the main ingredient with the word pie. Hence dishes like spanakopita (spinach pie), teeropita (cheese pie) etc.
I had just lunch but watching this I'm starting to get hungry again 😜
anna sr7 haha oh no... sorry about that Anna 😆 - Trevor
@@DelightfulTravellers 😉
I prefer the mpougatsa from Ο Σερραίος opposite the Courthouse of Thessaloniki. Especially the cheese variety. Unfortunately not the most touristy place.
Unlike most people commenting here, I call the spinach pie σπακανοτυρόπιτα which means spinachcheese pie. There are spinach pies without cheese, which is what I call spanakopita. ANYWAY, great video and thank you for sharing your experiences here. I hope you had a great time and you visit again.
When I go to Thessaloniki I always go to Elenidis pastry shop for the most amazing "Trigono" a syrupy filo pastry triangle filled with the most amazing custard cream! It's a MUST!
I'm glad you guys enjoyed my hometown, come back for another round sometime! :)
We will!

Oh you made me cry...i miss so much my hometown enjoy you're just great😘
you missed an opportunity to get tsoureki from that pastry shop at the end.
they are well known for it.
preferably with white chocolate glaze and sweet chestnut filling.
the trigono should be crunchy and not chewy. was probably stale :P
should have gotten to the source, panorama region of thessaloniki.
the difference between doner and gyro is that the one is minced lamb meat, while the other is sheets of pork on top of each other.
tzatziki also has garlic on top of all the rest.
nice video btw :D

Hi guys!I like your video about my city food! LIKE GREEK FOOD OF THESSALONIKI THERE IS NOWHERE...
Thank u for this yummy vid❤
My fav winter dish is lahanodolmades and
my go to summer dish is yemista
accompanied with Dodoni feta cheese❤️🔥
My fav sweet is either galaktoboureko
or greek yogurt with a spoonful of shredded quince gliko tou koutaliou sweet💙
Great food choises. I know you've had a nice day because our food is excellent. I could give you a couple of suggestions .TRY tsoureki with chestnut only from Terkenlis = Τερκενλής. And if you visit Chalkidiki you definitely need to eat fried mussels and stuffed calamari.
Take care guys.
Nice video about the food we have in Thessaloniki.
Love your videos ❤🇬🇷
Thank you!
