Hi gang, hope you enjoy eating your way around Athens with us! In case you missed it, here is our first Athens video: th-cam.com/video/aZCicHUk2NU/w-d-xo.html And don't forget to follow our eating and travels in real time on Instagram @chasingaplate Thanks for watching and for your support! Cheers, Thomas & Sheena
never judges a book by its cover. She uses the paragraph on the back, it tells you what the story is about. Hello Do you want to giggle so very hard ? Then search on google "makemelaugh8282" or "make me laugh 8282"
👊 that’s how I roll 🤣 It was SO good! Thanks for watching and commenting Success Blueprint- hope you enjoy the rest of our Athens series! Cheers, Sheena
I'm happy that finally I found a channel where they try the best of the best and not from places where are just well known. Good job ! hope you guys visit Greece again.
Hi Konstantinos Tsatsakis, thanks so much for watching and for your lovely words! Gosh we ate so well in Athens- we can’t wait to return to see more of the country. Hope you enjoy the rest of the series and like what we have coming up on the channel 😄 Cheers, Sheena

@@ChasingaPlate He was probably trying to get you guys buy both the spinach and feta pie which is why he doesn't put them together, lol Great channel btw. I am now studying abroad away from Greece and your videos make me very nostalgic
The pie shop is exactly one block near from my university! I can't say how many times I've been thinking about the spinach pie during my classes. Ahahahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣 lucky you having it so close Lina Sk! I’d be there all the time if my uni was nearby! Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video and like the rest of the series 😄 Cheers, Sheena
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 it is SO. SATISFYING. I want one!!!!! Thanks for watching and commenting on this video mate, hope you enjoyed it! Have a great weekend! Cheers, Sheena
Being of greek descent these greek episodes really touch my heart as well as stomach :) That first spinach eat looked amazingly delicious. Everything you tried looks yummy, especially that hot salad with the thin pork. Love your Mark Wiens foodie reactions :) So happy to see your views really jumping up this past month. You guys deserve the success. Keep rocking it, James and Kim
Awesome J. James! So happy you can travel and eat vicariously through our videos then 😄 omg that pork was amazing as was that hot salad. Hope you enjoy the rest of the series guys. Bring on the views 😝😝😝😝 Cheers, Sheena
Definitely appreciate that you guys scope out the best places and try them first before making your videos! Other channels just try places and label it “the best” without actually comparing it to anything else. Great channel!

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena you guys are truly professional and very respectful to appreciate your videos. Keep up the great job and best of luck.
Hi guys! You are great! I always like watching tourists that are excited and respectful to the places they visit. You really enjoyed it, and that's the goal in life (I am jealous of you, because this is what I really wish to do -travelling and tasting!) Thanks for visiting Greece and keep in mind that there are tons of other places in my country that you have to visit (like Corfu, my island). Keep up the good work and enjoy yourselves!
Hi J!m Geor, thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to say hi 😄 we are definitely not complaining about our lifestyle- we love what we do! We had a blast in Greece and can’t wait to explore more of the country. I visited Corfu about 15 years ago so would love to return 😍 hope you enjoy the rest of our Athens series mate! Cheers, Sheena
The feta, tomato and pepper dish is classic Greek for sure but I've always seen it baked. I eat it with bread. 😀👍 Instead of jalapeño, I believe those were Greek peperoncini (English obviously) which are quite flavorful but not very spicy. Always have a jar in the fridge. Another terrific day, guys.
Thanks for that info Tosh 😄😄😄 they were great! Added a lovely tanginess and slight crunch to that dish- gosh we loved that meal. So happy you enjoyed this one- thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena
You have so many excellent dishes to write about but if you do mention it in your nzherald feature, it's called bouyiourdi. Again, it's more often baked (in my experience) and the feta and tomatoes can be whole but if you google *bouyiourdi pan fried,* you'll see the version you and Thomas had.
Fun fact. I never heard of or ate a gyro until college in 1985-1989. I love traditional ones! Thin pork and lemon I cannot resist, oh and with the hot salad! 🤤
😍😍😍😍 I love when you discover a new food from a faraway land! Eating is the easiest way to travel! The traditional ones are the best- simple perfection 😍 thanks for watching and commenting 5cats 2kids! Cheers, Sheena
Looks like absolutely wonderful food would’ve loved to enjoy all of that but there’s no way I can afford ever go there you guys are awesome keep up the good work I really appreciate your time and effort that you put into your videos they are very very very good you are the best have a great day
Thanks so much mate! So happy you are able to travel to far flung places via our videos 😄 Thank you for your generous words- so thrilled you get value out of our videos 💕 Cheers, Sheena
There are a lot of nice restaurants , bakeries and taverns in the Athenian prefecture . I live in the southern supburbs of Athens , and we have a lot of similar shops in the area . But I appreciate having homemade food like homemade spanakopita or dolmadakia by my dad's mum , and southland cheese rolls , Maori bread and Shepperd's pie , by my mum , who is from Whangarei New Zealand . But yeah , gyros is by far the best street food in Greece . Kia Ora by a fellow Kiwi .
No way?! I’m from Whangarei originally 😄 it’s a small world 😄 awesome that you get a whole lot of kiwi cooking even though you live in Greece. We loved exploring Athens- would love to get back and see more of it. Thanks for watching and commenting and hope you enjoy the rest of the content on our channel. Kia Ora! Cheers, Sheena
I'm so glad that you went to Prodorpion for pita gyros instead of Bairactaris like everyone else. Prodorpion is way better and it's actually one of the best fast food places in Athens.
Hi DKSmusic, thanks so much for watching and commenting! Prodorpion was brilliant- we had so many average pita gyros in our search to find a good one so we were ecstatic to finally find theirs! We’ll definitely return when we’re next in Athens! Hope you enjoy the rest of our Athens series mate. Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate Yes , unfortunately you can't find good pita gyros everywhere but if you try it from the right place it's a unique gastronomic experience. :) When you come you have to try saganaki and pastitsio. Also , have in mind to visit the restaurant '' Feedέλ'' located in Glyfada , Athens. It's owned by a chef who is a judge at the greek edition of Masterchef and it's really awesome.
Awesome recommendation mate! We ate saganaki often and in a couple of our other videos. It's delicious! Didn't manage to find a good pastitisio though. Any recommendations for pastitsio and moussaka for our next visit? Thanks so much DKSmusic! Cheers, Sheena
As an Athenian I have to say that the joints you visited are spot on.! Near Makedonikon there is Mam whitch has also amazing and slightly better fyllo pastries. Great channel btw.
Hi F. Nikol, thanks so much for your lovely comment! We ate so well in Athens and can’t wait to get back to explore more of the city. Ah yes Mam! Other food TH-camrs have filmed there so we wanted to show somewhere different but great info to know. We’ll have to get there next time 😄 Hope you enjoy the rest of the series, thanks for watching and for taking the time to write! Cheers, Sheena
A crispy lamb gyro with tzatziki and hot sauce is my favorite food of all time. Somehow, I do not like raw onion, but in a gyro it blends so well and is delicious, it doesn't stand out on like a burger or something. No one puts fries in the gyros around here.
We can see why gyro is your fav food! 🤤🤤🤤 this one was epic. It would be my first stop on a return to Athens! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
😆😆😆😆😆 thanks Anthony! Not enough mmmmmms to describe the food we ate! We loved it all- those pork steaks was one of our fave meals- the family who own the restaurant are super friendly and the food was 🥳 thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
Greece is on our bucket list to visit soon! The food looks amazing and I’m drooling just watching! Also the beautiful buildings and sights! Looking forward to your next food video! 😋
Awesome Leo! It’s such a neat place- we’d love to get out to some of the islands next time! The food is so vibrant and fresh- we adored it. Thanks for watching and commenting mate! Cheers, Sheena
Thank you very much guys for the amazing food tour around my city ! You are doing a great job ! Im pleased to hear you liked Athens and I hope you come again
Awww thanks so much jay x! We loved our time in Athens and can’t wait to return. The food was SO awesome 🤤 hope you like the rest of the series! Thanks for watching and commenting 😍 Cheers, Sheena
Man! It all looks so delicious. Like Thomas said, when I think of spanakopita I would think of spinach AND feta. However, the simple spinach (and onions) would work for me too. The other stops had some of my favorite food: meat. 😄 The gyro looked amazing. It's hard to find good gyros in the middle of small-town Kentucky. That warm salad looked like a great complement to the pork. 👍🏼
🤣🤣🤣🤣 our kind of guy! You would have been so into that pork meal mate and omg that gyros was next level! Is Greek food in general easy to find where you live? Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you are enjoying the series bandknight! Cheers, Sheena
Spanakopita with feta is actually called spanakotiropita, to differentiate from plain spanakopita which is suitable for fasting (Greek orthodox tradition involves lots of that).
@@ChasingaPlate There's basically no Greek food here, unless one of the local restaurants happens to have a special item. I can travel about an hour and a half to find a Greek restaurant. So, when we do it's a treat.
Ive never heard anyone other than of Greek heritage say Spanakopita correctly. Is there anything you two cant do well!!! Id butcher that word but not you guys. Well done on capturing all the street Art it shows off how diverse Athens is in terms of architecture and then local lanes. The prices are incredibly reasonable compared to rest of Europe. 🌞👍
It was such a grungy city in some parts but we don’t mind that at all- love it in fact. It was a really cool place to just wander around. Hahaha Greek words can be such a tongue twister 😆 Hope you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching and commenting 😘 Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate Most bakeries and pastry shops in Athens sell the plain version as spanakopita and the version with feta or other cheeses as spanakotyropita (tyri=cheese).
No words needed guys!! I'm drooling over here & suddenly craving for meat & icecream I gotta scream! 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 Loving this 2nd part of your Athens series! 😍 Take care & cheers!!! 💙💜💚
the pie pastry looks incredible, look at the layer gosh i'm drooling...😛 is it hard to find the places in athens? given lots of traditional places are not in english. The gyros looks awesome too, chips inside the goodness 😍 Gosh never try the ice cream, looks good too 😆
I wasn't aware Greece is big on the pork offerings! And they all look amazing! I'm curious as to how the Gyros compare to say, the Doner kebab in Turkey?
Neither Foogie! It seems outside of Greece, Greek restaurants tend to use a lot of lamb in their dishes whilst in Greece lamb is reserved for special occasions. We were super surprised by it! The gyros are similar- I would say the döner in Turkey are often simpler as they don’t have the fries or the tzatziki. Hope you enjoyed this one mate, thanks so much for watching! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Unreal aren’t they. So tasty. We just made that meal at home for our street food at home video series. Check it out if you’re keen. Thanks for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀
The reason is that the ground and the weather is perfect for planting veggies in many places across Greece! Crete and Peloponnisos are the places that held most of the vegetable industries here!
Lamb is really popular in Greek cuisine outside of Greece for some reason. For example traveling abroad I've found lamb gyros. In Greece gyros is made only of pork or chicken. Never lamb. Lamb is served during big celebrations like Easter dinner, but people's daily diet is made of pork, chicken, veal, fish and lots of vegetables.
Thanks so much PacificOcean17! We were the same! It wasn’t until we started our research and actually hit the ground that we realised that lamb is usually reserved for celebratory occasions 😆 so happy you enjoyed this video, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Awesome commentary Robert, thank you! I wonder how lamb has become the meat most associated with Greek cuisine outside of Greece 🤔 hope you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to write! Cheers, Sheena
😍😄😍😄 so glad you agree! It’s one of our favourite flavours in Greece! Thanks for watching and commenting on this episode. Hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena
Hi kathy vlahos, thanks so much for that information! They weren't hot like jalapenos so knew we had it wrong. That was such a tasty dish. Hope you enjoyed this video, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Hi Theodore Bb, thanks so much for the information! It was such a great dish and went so well with the pork steaks. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! hanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena 😀
Woo hooo!!! You are going to eat so well mate! Thanks for watching and commenting- hope our Athens series helps with your eating itinerary! Have a brilliant trip! 🙌Cheers, Sheena
🤣🤣🤣 I know right?! He was so friendly- the founder of the restaurant- that meal was epic. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video and like the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
You cant eat spinach and cheese pie together but you can combine those two to make a wonderful pie with spinach AND cheese inside,basically this is a normal recipe in a thing called kalitsouni,it is one of the best traditional foods here in greece,basically i live in crete which is traditional but i dont know about the other greek islands and cities
It’s so interesting how he said that you don’t combine them isn’t it?! Maybe he was a purist 😆 we would love to visit Crete- hope we can get there on our next visit to Greece! Thanks for watching and commenting on this video mate, hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena So true!! Actually haven’t eaten many gyros in Athens - much more souvlaki. We eat gyro quite often here in NYC though
Amazing food 😍 I love the gyros and the pork with the fries and salad 👌🏼 those dishes looked fantastic. I like spanikopita I’ve had it a few times at a friend’s house
Omg the fries just made it! It was such a great day of eating FitAngie! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
I don't what it is about phyllo that makes it so enticing and satisfying, no matter what it envelops. Maybe it's all the butter between the layers... LOL! That gyro looked incredible...the rich, fatty pork bathed in tzatziki, OMG! What really made this video stand out for me, though, were your observations of the city. Looking forward to the next one!
😍😍😍😍 thanks so much MsKestrela! Athens just totally fascinated with us. It had so many different layers. Omg the gyro was amazing- the difference between a great one and an average once is so pronounced! Hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
You guys truly are masters of pork 🤤 it’s so interesting how in countries outside of Greece- lamb is the meat that’s most associated with the food culture yet in Greece it’s usually eaten on special occasions. Hope we can tuck into a big lamb feast on our next visit! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena
The first pastry you eat Su Böreği ? We also have such a thing Doner is definitely a Turkish food Menemen is Turkish food We usually eat for breakfast. Menemen was first found and made by the Turks

Wow. Love spanakopita. Have had the spinach with onions, spinach and feta and the cheese version love them all. Born and grew up in Chicago, only ever had the beef/lamb or lamb/veal gyros. Omg Greek Town in Chicago rocks. Have never tried Greek ice cream. Everytime I've visited Greece have focused on the crazy tasty seafood. Great vlog. New foods to eat when I go again.
Spanakopita is so simple but really satisfying right?! I think I’m just a huge fan of pies in all their forms though 🤣 We’re the same- lamb gyros is so common where we’re from but it’s not a thing in Greece 😆 I always wonder why that is! Thanks for watching and commenting you two! 😘 Hope you’re having a great week! Cheers, Sheena
Hi Regina, thanks for watching and commenting! We always list the restaurant/ stall details in the description of the video so check there 😄 Hope you enjoyed the video and like the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
I love to see all the places and the food you had there as a Greek who lives in Canada❤ I've really missed all these foods!How did you find all the touristic places and the prices overall?
Hi Garifallia Kovani, thanks so much for watching and commenting! So glad you were able to eat vicariously through us in this series! Omg the food was amazing! We always try to find local spots when it comes to eating so we found the prices very reasonable for the quality of the food 😀 Definitely more affordable than travelling say in Italy or France. Hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate Happy to hear that you had a good time and enjoyed the food in Greece💙It was definitely fun watching your videos and the fact that you didn't go to all the touristic places made it more interesting!!!Good job😊

Hi peter konto, thanks for watching and commenting 😄 oh my goodness everything was so tasty- hope our videos can help with your eating itinerary when you’re next in Athens! Cheers, Sheena
"Alfa" ", "Mythos" and "Fix" aren't Greek beers. They're not Greek owned. Vergina beer and Nisos beer, are Greek owned, operated and produced. "Nisos" beer is a world class award winning beer on its category.
This is awesome information! Thanks so much mate 😄 will have to look out for Nisos on our next visit! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
JOHN FOSS Really?? Obviously in Greece you're "sleeping with the tsaroochia" as my grandfather used to say. The Olympic Greek beer making company that produces the beer FIX and other beers, is bought by the Danish beer company Carlsberg. So...most commercial "Greek" beers, are Danish owned and operated. Open a book, instead of being a smartass.

Awesome recommendation mate! We ate saganaki often and in a couple of our other videos. It's delicious! Didn't manage to find a good pastitisio though. Any recommendations for pastitsio and moussaka for our next visit? Thanks so much DKSmusic! Cheers, Sheena
Best fast food places in Athens actually are not in Athens but in the suburbs 😉
As an Athenian I have to say that the joints you visited are spot on.! Near Makedonikon there is Mam whitch has also amazing and slightly better fyllo pastries. Great channel btw.
Mam has the best cream Bugatsa ever!
Hi F. Nikol, thanks so much for your lovely comment! We ate so well in Athens and can’t wait to get back to explore more of the city. Ah yes Mam! Other food TH-camrs have filmed there so we wanted to show somewhere different but great info to know. We’ll have to get there next time 😄 Hope you enjoy the rest of the series, thanks for watching and for taking the time to write! Cheers, Sheena
🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
@@ChasingaPlate if you want to eat quality food always ask locals and check the online reviews especially of Greeks :)
What’s the name of the place you got the gyros?! Would love to go tomorrow!!
A crispy lamb gyro with tzatziki and hot sauce is my favorite food of all time. Somehow, I do not like raw onion, but in a gyro it blends so well and is delicious, it doesn't stand out on like a burger or something. No one puts fries in the gyros around here.
We can see why gyro is your fav food! 🤤🤤🤤 this one was epic. It would be my first stop on a return to Athens! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena
Sheena, I love the way you say 'mmmmmm', love Greek food and the pork steaks look incredible !
😆😆😆😆😆 thanks Anthony! Not enough mmmmmms to describe the food we ate! We loved it all- those pork steaks was one of our fave meals- the family who own the restaurant are super friendly and the food was 🥳 thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
Greece is on our bucket list to visit soon! The food looks amazing and I’m drooling just watching! Also the beautiful buildings and sights! Looking forward to your next food video! 😋
Awesome Leo! It’s such a neat place- we’d love to get out to some of the islands next time! The food is so vibrant and fresh- we adored it. Thanks for watching and commenting mate! Cheers, Sheena
That Gyro place is the best
It's so good isn't it! We loved filming and eating there. Thanks so much for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀
Thank you very much guys for the amazing food tour around my city ! You are doing a great job ! Im pleased to hear you liked Athens and I hope you come again
Awww thanks so much jay x! We loved our time in Athens and can’t wait to return. The food was SO awesome 🤤 hope you like the rest of the series! Thanks for watching and commenting 😍 Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena ❤️🙏🙏🙏
That spinach pie looks really good! I've not tried Gyros before, thanks for introducing this dish!
Hope you get to sample it one day guys! It’s such a great street food- we love it! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Very nice video, hallo from Athens Greece, Telis is classic grill house, is traditional and very famous, but his does follow by young people, 😊
We loved Telis! Great people and delicious food! Thanks for watching mate. Cheers, Sheena
Man! It all looks so delicious. Like Thomas said, when I think of spanakopita I would think of spinach AND feta. However, the simple spinach (and onions) would work for me too. The other stops had some of my favorite food: meat. 😄 The gyro looked amazing. It's hard to find good gyros in the middle of small-town Kentucky. That warm salad looked like a great complement to the pork. 👍🏼
🤣🤣🤣🤣 our kind of guy! You would have been so into that pork meal mate and omg that gyros was next level! Is Greek food in general easy to find where you live? Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you are enjoying the series bandknight! Cheers, Sheena
Spanakopita with feta is actually called spanakotiropita, to differentiate from plain spanakopita which is suitable for fasting (Greek orthodox tradition involves lots of that).
@@ChasingaPlate There's basically no Greek food here, unless one of the local restaurants happens to have a special item. I can travel about an hour and a half to find a Greek restaurant. So, when we do it's a treat.
Thanks so much for this Nscizor! So helpful 😀 Cheers, Sheena
Spanakotiropita is my fave 😍
Ive never heard anyone other than of Greek heritage say Spanakopita correctly. Is there anything you two cant do well!!! Id butcher that word but not you guys.
Well done on capturing all the street Art it shows off how diverse Athens is in terms of architecture and then local lanes. The prices are incredibly reasonable compared to rest of Europe. 🌞👍
It was such a grungy city in some parts but we don’t mind that at all- love it in fact. It was a really cool place to just wander around. Hahaha Greek words can be such a tongue twister 😆 Hope you enjoyed this one! Thanks for watching and commenting 😘 Cheers, Sheena
spinach pie is perfect with cheese...i absolutely love it!!!
🤤🤤🤤🤤 we’re fans too! Perhaps he was a real purist 😆 thanks for watching and commenting katerina k- hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate Most bakeries and pastry shops in Athens sell the plain version as spanakopita and the version with feta or other cheeses as spanakotyropita (tyri=cheese).
That spanakopita looks SO flaky and crispy! Also like how there is just spinach and onion in there
How good looking was that pastry! 😍 Absolutely loved starting off with that. Such a neat place. Thanks for watching guys! - Thomas 😀
No words needed guys!! I'm drooling over here & suddenly craving for meat & icecream I gotta scream! 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 Loving this 2nd part of your Athens series! 😍 Take care & cheers!!! 💙💜💚
Yay, thanks for watching and commenting Ar Em! 🥳 Hope you had a snack on hand mate! Omg that meat was next level. Have a great week! Cheers, Sheena ❤️
the pie pastry looks incredible, look at the layer gosh i'm drooling...😛 is it hard to find the places in athens? given lots of traditional places are not in english. The gyros looks awesome too, chips inside the goodness 😍 Gosh never try the ice cream, looks good too 😆
I wasn't aware Greece is big on the pork offerings! And they all look amazing! I'm curious as to how the Gyros compare to say, the Doner kebab in Turkey?
Neither Foogie! It seems outside of Greece, Greek restaurants tend to use a lot of lamb in their dishes whilst in Greece lamb is reserved for special occasions. We were super surprised by it! The gyros are similar- I would say the döner in Turkey are often simpler as they don’t have the fries or the tzatziki. Hope you enjoyed this one mate, thanks so much for watching! Cheers, Sheena 😄
Why the tomatoes looks so amazing in Greece? I wanna that hot salad (I've never seen something like that before).
Unreal aren’t they. So tasty. We just made that meal at home for our street food at home video series. Check it out if you’re keen. Thanks for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀
The reason is that the ground and the weather is perfect for planting veggies in many places across Greece! Crete and Peloponnisos are the places that held most of the vegetable industries here!
Great video! When I think of Greek food I always think of lamb, so it is great to see pork is a popular meat, too.
Lamb is really popular in Greek cuisine outside of Greece for some reason. For example traveling abroad I've found lamb gyros. In Greece gyros is made only of pork or chicken. Never lamb. Lamb is served during big celebrations like Easter dinner, but people's daily diet is made of pork, chicken, veal, fish and lots of vegetables.
Thanks so much PacificOcean17! We were the same! It wasn’t until we started our research and actually hit the ground that we realised that lamb is usually reserved for celebratory occasions 😆 so happy you enjoyed this video, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
Awesome commentary Robert, thank you! I wonder how lamb has become the meat most associated with Greek cuisine outside of Greece 🤔 hope you enjoyed the video, thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to write! Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate keep up the good work!
Pork is more common in Greece than lamb.
13:07 Did they wrote that on the wall for you? lol
"Masticha tastes like a pine forest". I couldn't describe it better and I'm Greek.
😍😄😍😄 so glad you agree! It’s one of our favourite flavours in Greece! Thanks for watching and commenting on this episode. Hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena
I believe the peppers in the salad are banana peppers. We do not normally use jalapeno peppers.
Hi kathy vlahos, thanks so much for that information! They weren't hot like jalapenos so knew we had it wrong. That was such a tasty dish. Hope you enjoyed this video, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
At 8:35, we call it mpoygoyrdi and it's feta (what else? 😂) and spicy peppers cooked in olive oil 👌
Hi Theodore Bb, thanks so much for the information! It was such a great dish and went so well with the pork steaks. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! hanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena 😀
of course you get spinach pie with bits of feta. who said we don't combine?
Maybe he was a super traditionalist 😆 Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
Did you heard how he spelled σπανακόπιτα he was like "we love spanaoukooupitaa
😄😄😄😄 that’s so cool! We love spanakopita too! Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena
Those pork steaks look so good, especially after being grilled over charcoal!
They were SO juicy!! 😍
So freaking excited to visit in November!!
Woo hooo!!! You are going to eat so well mate! Thanks for watching and commenting- hope our Athens series helps with your eating itinerary! Have a brilliant trip! 🙌Cheers, Sheena
You are explaining food better than Gordon Ramsey himself 😂
😂 what a compliment! Thanks Captain Sar! Hope you enjoyed this one mate, thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena
That mastica adds such an interesting piny flavor!
It so does! I find it a really hard flavour to describe (as you could probably tell🤣)!!
“We”ve been eating out wahitnin γύρο” yeah .... that is a trip to Athens alright xD
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 the food in Greece is soooooo good! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
What a great way to finish this, with unique ice creams.. never had anything even similar to this. Sooo yummy
It was super refreshing! Love sampling traditional ice cream flavours when we travel 😍🥳
Thought that old man was staring at you guys then I realised it was just a picture of him 8:10
🤣🤣🤣 I know right?! He was so friendly- the founder of the restaurant- that meal was epic. Thanks for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed this video and like the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
Me too. Had to do a double take.
That’s looks very good ,I’m tired of these nasty gyro spots in Nashville ,TN lol
It was amazing! Such an awesome food day. Thanks heaps for watching mate. Cheers, Thomas 😀
What a wonderful menu you have for us today! Who wouldn’t love to be in Greece right now?
😄😄😄😄 I know right!? I’d love to get out to the islands next time! Have you guys ever been? Thanks for watching and commenting you two! Cheers, Sheena
5:30 you say it perfect 👌
Thanks for watching mate. 🙌 cheers, Thomas 😀
You do have them together. It's called spanako-tiro-pita
🙌🙌🙌🙌
He must have been a super traditionalist 😆 thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
You cant eat spinach and cheese pie together but you can combine those two to make a wonderful pie with spinach AND cheese inside,basically this is a normal recipe in a thing called kalitsouni,it is one of the best traditional foods here in greece,basically i live in crete which is traditional but i dont know about the other greek islands and cities
It’s so interesting how he said that you don’t combine them isn’t it?! Maybe he was a purist 😆 we would love to visit Crete- hope we can get there on our next visit to Greece! Thanks for watching and commenting on this video mate, hope you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
@@ChasingaPlate yeah,greek cuisine is a bit confusing but it has amazing results,love you both,have a great day 😊
You too mate!! Big love back!
That gyro looks great! Those crispy bits and the pita looks excellent
The difference between a good gyro and a crap one is SO pronounced right!? So glad we found this one. Where is your favourite in Athens? 🤤
Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena So true!! Actually haven’t eaten many gyros in Athens - much more souvlaki. We eat gyro quite often here in NYC though
Very nice vidéo. The spinach pie look amazing. The ice cream nice and the pork looks amazing. 👍😃
Omg it really was all amazing! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, so glad you enjoyed it! Cheers, Sheena
Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena Thank you for the video that you are sharing. Sometimes I think that I am in this country.

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena thank you guyes 😊
Amazing food 😍 I love the gyros and the pork with the fries and salad 👌🏼 those dishes looked fantastic. I like spanikopita I’ve had it a few times at a friend’s house
Omg the fries just made it! It was such a great day of eating FitAngie! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena
I don't what it is about phyllo that makes it so enticing and satisfying, no matter what it envelops. Maybe it's all the butter between the layers... LOL! That gyro looked incredible...the rich, fatty pork bathed in tzatziki, OMG! What really made this video stand out for me, though, were your observations of the city. Looking forward to the next one!
😍😍😍😍 thanks so much MsKestrela! Athens just totally fascinated with us. It had so many different layers. Omg the gyro was amazing- the difference between a great one and an average once is so pronounced! Hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena
I was in Athens and am filthy I just watched your videos.
Looks like I will be going back for a couple of days of fattening up
Do it George!! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed our videos! Cheers, Sheena
welcome to the pork country. we don't know much about beef, but we are masters of pork and lamp (you didn't try it)
You guys truly are masters of pork 🤤 it’s so interesting how in countries outside of Greece- lamb is the meat that’s most associated with the food culture yet in Greece it’s usually eaten on special occasions. Hope we can tuck into a big lamb feast on our next visit! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena
always trying a best street foods from local keep rocking. I'm mouthwatering now
Hope you got to have a tasty snack after watching mate! Thanks for watching and commenting 😄😄😄 Cheers, Sheena
The pork looks yummy, we wish we could smell the spices on the meat.. what a great combination with the feta cheese salad
It was one of our fave meals during our time there- just simple! And the family who owned the restaurant were really friendly and kind 😄
This is cool here in Greece where you can find great street foods and you've never seen it before, amazing! Lovely adventure video! 😉
So happy you enjoyed it Jade! Omg Athens has such great food 🤤🤤🤤 thanks for watching and commenting mate! Cheers, Sheena

Love all the graffiti and street art in Athens!
Us too!!
Me on the other hand not so much as most are just ugly
@@comingafteryou5352 Yeah street art is one thing but graffiti is horrible and makes everything ugly.
Wow. Love spanakopita. Have had the spinach with onions, spinach and feta and the cheese version love them all. Born and grew up in Chicago, only ever had the beef/lamb or lamb/veal gyros. Omg Greek Town in Chicago rocks. Have never tried Greek ice cream. Everytime I've visited Greece have focused on the crazy tasty seafood. Great vlog. New foods to eat when I go again.
Fun fact. Greeks in Greece have never heard of lamb/veal gyros. Gyros in Greece is only made of pork or chicken.
Spanakopita is so simple but really satisfying right?! I think I’m just a huge fan of pies in all their forms though 🤣 We’re the same- lamb gyros is so common where we’re from but it’s not a thing in Greece 😆 I always wonder why that is! Thanks for watching and commenting you two! 😘 Hope you’re having a great week! Cheers, Sheena

"Alfa" ", "Mythos" and "Fix" aren't Greek beers. They're not Greek owned.
Vergina beer and Nisos beer, are Greek owned, operated and produced.
"Nisos" beer is a world class award winning beer on its category.

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena You're welcome! You should try the Nisos beer. It's one of the best Greek beers.
JOHN FOSS Really?? Obviously in Greece you're "sleeping with the tsaroochia" as my grandfather used to say.
The Olympic Greek beer making company that produces the beer FIX and other beers, is bought by the Danish beer company Carlsberg.
So...most commercial "Greek" beers, are Danish owned and operated. Open a book, instead of being a smartass.
