You are so kind and respectful in the Greek culture I wanna thank u and come back for summer in the islands this time our beaches deserve a visit ❤️ I advice you Corfu or Crete
the reason the parthenon is such a jigsaw puzzle is because in the middle ages while it was under ottoman rule, those geniuses stored their ammunition inside the parthenon, and the Venetians bombarded the parthenon during one of their clashes. So the acropolis became a Michael Bay movie.
Honestly all the places we went to in Greece all the cats were so lovely!!! Our Airbnb in Santorini had a resident cat who pretty much stayed and slept with us the whole time!! And yes our visit to the Acropolis was definitely extended by the amount of times we stopped to pet the cats 😅😅
@@locavore_eats oh yes I saw your Santorini vid and that cat was cute and a fatty!😄🐱 We have lots of cats in Greece for sure!! I live in an Island 3 hrs away from Santorini and feed around 30 stray cats every day. Sweethearts they are! 😊❤️
Great video! The fish soup is served properly separated from fish. The stuffed zucchini should be served with egg -lemon thick sauce called avgo-lemono. I think you have a great metabolism....haha! Awesome presentation because you combine sightseeing + food 👍😋
Love how respectful you are of Greek culture, and your pronunciation of Greek words isn't bad either! Fun fact: "gyro" means "turn", referring to the meat rotating on a spit. It's the same root where we get "gyroscope" and "gyrate". I agree that Greek pita is fantastic, always well seasoned with salt, spices, and olive oil. Gyro and pita = absolutely elite food 🤌🤌🤌
Hey there, gyro is the shaved pork because it is cooked on a big skewer that constantly turns around (round -> gyro, e.g. gyroscope), you were trying to refer to the pita bread. What you had at "O Thanasis" was pita souvlaki (as they say in Greece) or pita kalamaki (as they say in Athens). Otherwise, excelent job at showing local homemade food a Greek person would usually eat and not just touristy food.
Thank you for correcting!! I think I kept on saying gyro throughout our visit and only realised afterwards 😆 But thank you so much for watching we had an amazing time eating all the delicious food in Athens!!

Dear friend come in Thessaloniki and Chalkidiki coast in northern Greece to eat. The tastes are better than these in Athens. In Athens they don't know anything about good food. Try and other places. For example in my opinion Kostas is not the only restaurant for Greek souvlaki. Try and another shops. Bye
Greek food is heaven
You are so kind and respectful in the Greek culture I wanna thank u and come back for summer in the islands this time our beaches deserve a visit ❤️ I advice you Corfu or Crete

Creteeeee♥️♥️

The pork skewer at Thanasis it's called kalamaki tylixto(means wrapped in pita loaded)
Best part about visiting the Acropolis....the cats! 😃🐱👍🏻 Agreed! They are so sweet! ❤️🐱

Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰 Wish we had more time to eat even more gyros in Athens 😆
18:13 next time try tirokafteri salad, it is mild (pepper-cheese) in your pita-guro instead of tzatziki
Ooh that sounds delicious, will definitely remember that for next time :)
Nah ..tzatziki IS way better
I ran upon your channel scrolling on UA-cam. I have been binge watching it. I really enjoy your channel. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much!! Glad you're enjoying our videos :))
Keep going your channel will grow
Thanks fam appreciate the encouragement :)

Go to Savvas for traditional souvlaki and kebab
When we go back we will remember to eat there!!
Was that before lockdown ? It looks so calm there . Not crowded
Yes, it was. I keep on forgetting to add it to the description haha. This was back in February.
Greece is full of clubs until 7 in the morning but unfortunately after the COVID everything close until 12 😕

Thanks guys! I’m visiting Greece next month. Salamat ng marami…
Hey guys! What month did you guys go in Greece? Keen to go in December but not sure if things are open 😂
We went in in February 2020 so pre-COVID too so not sure how Athens is like nowadays. Thanks for watching! :)
Nice video
Thank you :))
Are you sure that this is greek culture???

We will definitely visit those places next time!! Everyone's been saying the food is so much better there 😂 Thank you!
You obviously don’t know what gyro or tzatziki is
are you brother and sister or a couple?
Siblings :)
Your praline pronunciation is fine, but your "pistachio" one needs work :)
Haha glad to know it was right with praline. I was pronouncing pistachio the Italian way since we were in Italy the week before. I guess it stuck 😅
