Greek Grills & Food

WARNING: Not suitable for vegetarians!


We connected our flight in Amsterdam and I did not want to leave the land of many delightful Cheeses. It was, for a moment, a paradise for me -- just like Scrat who got sent to Nuts heaven in Ice Age 2: The Meltdown. in Amsterdam. As much as I regret I had to forsake my fictitious paradise and arrived at the land famed for only one cheese -- Feta cheese! Unbelievable! How can people survive by consuming only one type of cheese in their lifetime?! (just exaggeration)

Anyhoo... I digressed too far.
The Greeks seem to have almost everything they eat grilled. Tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, and what not are skewered with other meats to be placed on the grill. It's the perfect place for me... love grilled food! I thinking of purchasing a BBQ grill soon... this is what traveling has made me into.

Grilled squid, otherwise known as Greek style calamari. Must try.

Greek's traditional Moussaka (μουσακάς). It's very appetizing! Don't leave Greece without trying this.

Grilled succulent lamb meat. It's not just meat, it's Thomas Grill lamb meat!

Fava. It is absolutely delicious and a specialty of Santorini. Taste very much like the Indian's Dahl.

Grilled mussels with, uhh, tomato sauce? I'm not too sure but they are lovely! I know, everything is lovely at this point but the ARE really, really nice! Trust me!.

Grilling octopus! Yeah, it's OCTOPUS! Fresh from the Mediterranean Sea! It is a delicacy peculiar to Greece, but best from the islands.

Grilled little fishes. Looks like anchovies but they're not. We look into the waters (the Mediterranean sea) we actually saw these exact same fishes swimming in there while I was busy enjoying another piece in my hands!
