How to grow fat in greece !

γειά σου !

Welcome back and sunny greetings from Greece !

What an outstanding weather it is over here . Feels so good  just walking around and enjoying the sun on your face .

Yesterday afternoon we were all a bit hungry and thirsty so we started looking for something to eat and drink. We found ourselves a table on this cozy restaurant terrace where we were greeted by this very friendly greek guy.

There were a whole lot of tasty-looking things on the menu , which made it quite hard for us to choose. But if there's one thing you have got to eat when you go to Greece than it's the ' meze '.  This is not a single dish , but more like a traditional menu . When you order a meze you got around 10 plates of food from which everybody can eat . It is not really ment as a meal  , but more as a snack whilst drinking a traditional drink like ouzo or raki and having a talk with friends. This does not mean you will leave the table with a empty stomach . We got all kinds of dishes like bread with tzatziki ,  rice stuffed wine leaves called dolma , calamari , tasty meatballs , fresh fish ... Really too much to sum up , but i can tell you one thing : it was delicious !
The greek food is so honest and simple , but still so finger-licking good !

After finishing the plates of food we were all to lazy to get up. It felt like we had eaten for 2 days non stop . Unable to move ourselves we decided to stay put a bit longer and to enjoy some more , the greek way , with a nice bottle of wine !

see you later !

Wouter
