      @Caaak Yerada Actually, I am an Egyptian of Arabian origins and, in fact, all the families that migrated from Arabia to Egypt 900-1400 years ago know each other very well and we know how many we are. We're not as many as you might think. Egyptians are Egyptians.
      And - by the way - even as Arabian-Egyptian no one here considered me less of an Egyptian than they are. I AM a full Egyptian.
      Both Egypt and Greece are way more ancient than this argument.

    I want to ask something to Turkish friends, first of all its ok to share foods, songs and culture generally, there is nothing bad in it in my opinion.
    Where you can find honey at the steppes of Mongolia and China, how to grow wheat to produce bread products, where you can find fish of salt water there? How you can grow vegetables at steppes and use them in different foods? Where to find olive oil there ?
    Yes at some foods we use Turkish words, gyros is not a Turkish word for example, souvlaki is not a Turkish word. All of these foods have ancient origins and had different names back then
    Its tragic because after all these years you still view yourself as conquerors, the question is what you gave to humanity and civilization not what you stole from others.

    It's soo underrated and delicious! I am middle eastern myself so we have a lot of similarities.

    Authentic Greek food only in Greece and Greek taverns. Also, mostly in our homes. Our street food while it's top-notch, in every country I visited it was slightly different. due to the ingredients they're able to find in said countries. Our Gyros is specifically well, thinly sliced pork, unless you ask for chicken. Souvlaki is the stick of pork meat also into pita, like gyros. Our bakeries for breakfast after morning/evening at the beach and night at night club, when it starts getting morning you visit our bakeries. The smell alone will make your belly complain. The variety, fresh ingredients and a lot of work we put on our food, deserves first place, although always come second only after Italy cause of their Pizza and Pasta. We Greek are also second in pasta consumption with Feta cheese.

    The Lebanese girl who keeps saying the food is similar it’s because Greek and Lebanese people have been in contact for thousands of years. We are neighbors. From the Phoenicians and Greeks doing trade and influencing each other to both being under Roman rule and more recently Ottoman rule. Our foods are very similar as well as the cultures (especially the Greek Orthodox Lebanese people and the Greek islanders / Cypriots)

    I’m Greek and I’m surprised the street food I eat everyday has all this history. I always thought of it as just street food with probably 100 year old recipes.
    They should also try the Greek version of cheesecake (some claim it is the original cheesecake before the American one). Christmas delicacies such as kourampiedes and melomacarona. Also our coffee menu: Classic Greek coffee, or since Greece is a hot country they can try our alternative specialties: Frappe (ice coffee), Freddo Espresso (ice espresso) and Freddo Cappuccino (ice cappuccino). Perfect for a beach day!

    9:15 this dude walked in the most heated debate in modern Greece and didn't even know it. Northern Greece considers gyros and meat wraps sandwiches, so when you order you say something like. "one sandwich with gyro in pita bread". Southern Greece considers them wraps, so in the 80-00s if you visited Athens for example from Thessaloniki, the store clerks would teasingly mock you when ordering. Moreover in southern Greece when you order "souvlaki" you get a pita wrap with meat in it, in northern Greece however you get a pork skewer.

    For all delusional Turks , Arabs , Iraqis or whatever with a few clicks u can see ... Loukoumades are Greek doughnuts which have a round, golden appearance. Made using flour and salt, and dressed with honey syrup and cinnamon, they are very popular in Greek cooking. The dessert first originated in Ancient Greece, where they were called "honey tokens" and were awarded to winning Olympic athletes.
    -
    Koulouri It was introduced under the name “Koulouri Thessalonikis” because it was originally made in Thessaloniki by Greek refugee bakers. It's story starts from Byzantium, the word Koulouri comes from the Byzantine kollikion and was popular mainly in Istanbul and Thessaloniki.
    -
    Gyros is a food item of Greek origin[5] made from meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie and served wrapped or stuffed in pita bread, along with ingredients such as tomato, onion, fried potatoes, and tzatziki. In Greece, it is normally made with pork[6] or sometimes with chicken, whilst beef and lamb are also used in other countries.
    Keep being salty .

      @Caaak Yerada Lokma means mouthful in ARABIC, and that's where you get the word from. Don't even know your own language, pathetic. Luqmat al-Qadi, is a 13th century Arabic dish which you picked up coming through from Mongolia. Keep telling me that the Turks invented cooking meat on a stick though. I mean, the Byzantines, who's cities you live in, were eating rich cuisines before the Ottomans arrived - do you think that maybe we share aspects of the same cuisine because of Geography; or do you honestly think tUrKs InVenTeD iT.

    That tyropita is frozen. Even in Greece now is difficult to find fresh one. But if you find is ten time better. Another variety is Bougatsa. Even better than tyropita.
    Also koulouri if its fresh is very good (you can find it in Aristotelous Square at 07:00)
    We greeks don’t eat “fish in a cone”. We eat that when we go in a taverna with other dishes like tarama and octopus, drinking usually ouzo.
    In Gyro the G is not silent.
    Oh and we don’t say OPA. Opa actually means “stop” so we use OPA when we want to say to someone to stop (e.g. when someone is trying to park his car and gets very close to the wall).

    Greek here:
    Dolmades or Dolmadakia (little dolmades) are usually eaten for dinner/lunch
    Tiropita is the best breakfast, usually enjoyed with chocolate milk but for the love of god DO NOT STAY OUTSIDE AFTER YOU'VE COMBINED THOSE 2 YOU MIGHT NEED THE TOILET IN THE NEXT 30 MINUTES
    Koulouri, another great breakfast, usually enjoyed with coffee or chocolate milk. You're safe if you mix. Usually
    Fish in a cone, never had any. Not a thing in the north from where I'm from. The fish are usually sardines, fried. Really enjoyable with a drop of lemon
    Gyros, the holy grail, best emergency dinner in case you don't have time to cook and the day is ending and you're hungry. Usually with bread or pita, tzatziki is yoghurt with cucumber and sometimes garlic. No it is not like a Taco, DO NOT COMPARE GYRO WITH TACO! you might offend both parties.
    DO NOT EAT IT LIKE A TACO, IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT! EAT IT LIKE YOU'D EAT A REGULAR SANDWICH! YOU'VE OFFENDED MOST GREEKS WITH THAT
    Loukoumades, on every festival, you'll find plenty of stalls that make loukoumades. Do have water with you close by, you will be dehydrated if you eat 3-5. They're very very sweet. Don't eat a lot in one go, it's not fun.

    The fish cone is nothing near a traditional case of street food in Greece. It got to be a trend at some point between 2000-2010 but to my perception it failed right off. That much that you have to try a lot anymore to find a place that offers such stuff. There are restaurants that specialize in fish and seafood which are served and accompanied with ouzo or tsipouro but that's a whole another story.
