I live in Melbourne, we have the largest Greek population here outside of Athens and oh man is the Greek food good, i'd still love to know how it differs to the Greek food in Greece, but I can already tell we have some amazing Greek food compared to the tragic stuff i've tried overseas 😅we are definitely spoilt!
I went to Greece a couple of years ago, specifically Crete and I don't know how but the food there is the freshest I've ever had. The tomatoes taste literally happy. How do veggies taste happy? Idk I miss it.
In Crete where I am from you get the best and freshest food you can find made in our farms my friend and straight to the consumer. On top of that in Crete they always have big servings and great hospitality. Cheers 🇬🇷
I could have written this exact comment myself. I spent a month in a tiny Cretan village and my neighbour would give me tomatoes from her garden... I've never tasted anything like it. SO so delicious.
Way to go Mike our food is delicious and heavenly and the freshest and most tasty ingredients you can find are in the Mediterranean and specifically Greece happens to be in an ideal location climate wise as well. And our islands are spectacular,it's no wonder that Greece is called the land of the Gods and the land of love and romance. Welcome to our paradise Mike I hope you enjoyed everything 👍🇬🇷
Need Paprika pringles in my life 😩 I was OBSESSED with the hot honey ones and now can’t find them anywhere. Also spinach pie 😩 I make my own spinach puffs and they’re easily one of my favorite foods but no one else in my household likes them
Paprika is like THE chips flavour in germany as well. some brands call it Ungarisch (hungarian) but it's simply Paprika. Ketchup is popular in Canada as well, right? And I heard some stores in the US have it now as well. Ketchup is part of "all dressed", I think?
@@tommystix87 Well, if the place happened to have a food shop there, as well as the gas shop, that would be fine people could buy both, but they can't eat there, because it's not a dinning place. Many gas stations in America have food shops there!
@@tommystix87 Not here in America! All the food shops by the gas stations don't have any type of designated eating areas at all, where people can eat, which logically makes perfect sense. America is a country that is health conscious intellectually and prevention of toxic chemicals or other harmful substances from gasoline or car exhaustions is a primary concern America has always been of for their consumers! Thus, no eating areas at the food shops by the gas stations! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
@@SarahThor-ht4qyit has both so what’s the issue here? You just contradicted yourself completely. Not to mention every country is different. Me, a jersey resident, lives near a GAS STATION that sells authentic Mexican cuisine that we can sit there and eat it. Which you said was ok after saying it wasn’t ok. So I’m guessing it’s all good 🤷🏼♀️
Hey can anyone explain to me why some faces are blurred out? I've been watching Mike Chen for over a year now and I've wondered why some people are blurred out while others aren't. Do they ask him to be blurred, is it an automatic feature, like I'm just curious :p
It’s polite to blur out people’s faces in non public spaces and public spaces and you can get into legal issues if you found out you recorded someone without there notice if it wasn’t in a public space. But i’m pretty sure he just doesn’t care enough to blur out other faces
He blurs the faces that are closest for privacy reasons. Those that are too far or turned away don't need as much blurring because you can't easily recognize the faces.
nope. paprika flavoured chips is a european thing i think. like ketchup flavoured chips are also more in canada than the us as well (at least i heard that somewhat recently, because of the all dressed chips thing)
Shows how much worse inflation is here in the states by comparison. Those pita wraps would easily cost $10 here in the states compared to 4 euros there.
You make me curious to try the food Mike😁🤤,, let's go to Indonesia Mike, there are lots of unique food here too, you have to try it🤭👍..greetings from Indonesia🇮🇩 to all of you☺️
Oh boy.. I understand in Asia it’s common to slurp and it means you’re enjoying it, but no slurpie in Italia 🫣 people will look at you in disgust. Completely different country meaning different culture as well. Please keep in mind for next time, cool 💁🏼♀️ keep up the around the world content we so much come here for
I agree 100%. I was lucky to work next to a Greek restaurant in Orlando and their gyro meat was lamb. It's just not the same when it's beef or beef/lamb mixed.
Ok, I don't like the haters. But I gotta say your pronunciation of even English words was just horrible. pringLEEEEE not pringOOO. Please Mikey don't make me agree with haters.
I have been in Greece back in 2009 with the AIDA cruise and I still have a trauma from that mountainbike tour across Rhodos. And that I had a heatstroke while climbing to the Acropolis. lol

i love tomatoes and your comment made me happy, i want to taste that "happy tomato flavor" too! 😅
I could have written this exact comment myself. I spent a month in a tiny Cretan village and my neighbour would give me tomatoes from her garden... I've never tasted anything like it. SO so delicious.
Love that Mike always finds the greatest gas station goodies. Even in Italy. Belissimo!
Ahh I loved AutoGrill when I was in Italy. There was a chicken one I toasted all the time yummy. Brings back good memories.

Greek food is my absolute favourite ❤
Greek & Italian food is such lovely stuff! Fresh and yummy and such nice bright flavors.
I heard that it was bland and that only white people think it's top notch. Other cultures think Italian cuisine is bland like all of Europe's cuisine.
Delicious ..❤I love Greek and Italian food ❤
Thanks! Italy makes the best wine, go to the bakery for spanicopita and all the pastrys you just ate and fine dining for pasta.
What I'd most love to try is a tie between that fresh gyro with crispy fries in a plush pita and.....the giant baby bottle filled with popcorn!? 😂
Ooo those Greek Gyros looked the best which you ate in your room. I said Mmmmm out loud when you tried the first one 🤣
What you see at the top is actually the Parthenon. The acropolis is the name of the hill itself Mike.
Italian, Turkish and Greek food have a lot in common because we are neighboring countries..
Hello from Greece.
Happy new year 🎉
Oh look you found the Buc-ee's of Italy
except its not american crap food ;D
@@UffUffsenbuccees looked better though, let's not glaze
Bucee is way overrated.
@@ndb_1982 never said it wasn't.
Wellcome in Greece!!!!
Moussaka is my most favourite Greek dish. Made properly it’s amazing 😋
Paprika pringles are my absolute fave! Some moreish! 😊
You should have gone with the Crik Croks paprika. So good!
4 DOLLARS?!?! that would easily be 15 dollars PLUS in the states! What a deal
Used to be around 2-2,5€ 😢
Salaries in Italy are way lower than the US. But yeah, it’s a good deal if you’re a visiting American.
@2:00 Just a heads up, their faces are unblurred before this point.

Paprika Pringles are one of few Pringles that are quite commen were I live,Paprika souer cream and onion and the original one are onse you find
Greek food rivals Italian and Japanese for the best in the world imo and can often times beat it

Canadian here! 😊 Can confirm ketchup is a flavour included in all dressed chips (along with BBQ, salt & vinegar, and sour cream & onion)
So Mike gets to stay at Grande Bretagne in Athens and never a peep about the Five Star service of the place? 😮
I had the exact same thought. I guess he spent very little time there.
There's no way that pasta was amazing!
as an italian, i am happy you enjoyed our food
Mike Chan,
A "GAS STATION" is a place where people buy gasoline for their vehicles, not a dinning place!
Weird how people are literally going there and not only buying gas but also buying food. Have you never heard of any place that does both?
@@tommystix87 Well, if the place happened to have a food shop there, as well as the gas shop, that would be fine people could buy both, but they can't eat there, because it's not a dinning place. Many gas stations in America have food shops there!
@SarahThor-ht4qy A lot of those type of places have areas where you can eat though whether it's inside of the store or outside of it.
@@tommystix87 Not here in America! All the food shops by the gas stations don't have any type of designated eating areas at all, where people can eat, which logically makes perfect sense.

Could that sandwich be any bigger!
It is always delicious to watch Mike Chen
Ooh. Steak! Finally, something other than pork!
Omigod I love Autogril!!!
Wait…no umami?!
Hey Mikey, where did you stay? Heading there in April, still hotel hunting!
Gas station pasta is my new band name
Is eggplant harmesan your rapper name? 😂
@@annunakian8054 If only I knew how to rap good lol
What was the name of the restaurant you got your pita wraps from?
Is this basically an Italian version of the American Buckys?
Yes. 😁
those gyros looked amazing
Sarni's Autogrill missed a golden opportunity by not calling their outlet Bucci's. 😂

Probably to protect the identity of a minor. But then he got lazy and didnt do it in the shots later on
It’s polite to blur out people’s faces in non public spaces and public spaces and you can get into legal issues if you found out you recorded someone without there notice if it wasn’t in a public space. But i’m pretty sure he just doesn’t care enough to blur out other faces

Thank you Miley for always positive content. Seeing new uplaods from you makes my day👍
If you think he is really positive follow his social media
Ketchup chips in canada are very popular
Wait, are Paprika Pringles not a thing in the US??? I thought they were one of the basic flavors they've got everywhere. 😮
nope. paprika flavoured chips is a european thing i think. like ketchup flavoured chips are also more in canada than the us as well (at least i heard that somewhat recently, because of the all dressed chips thing)
@@serenetivyes, Canada has the ketchup chips.
Hey are you living in Allen tx? My Fam thinks you are great. We also live in Allen, maybe we will bump into you at 99 ranch or Hmart
Hi Mike
Thank you for sharing.
It’s so cool 😎 how you get to travel the world and eat at different restaurants, snacks, gas stations and so on! Greece 🇬🇷 is on my bucket list
💯💯💯💯💯
Secc-hioy's?
HOW MANY COUNTRYS HAV U BEEN TO AND EATERYS HAV U BEEN TO
Looks like fun!
I miss Autogrill and Sarni!
Shows how much worse inflation is here in the states by comparison. Those pita wraps would easily cost $10 here in the states compared to 4 euros there.
Paprika pringles have been out for like 15 years
The pork pita though
Hey Mike!! Always here for this. Enjoy... 🐞❤️

Finally made it to Greece Mickey. Watching you from Queens.
We have paprika pringles in the UK 🇬🇧
Loves the tour.
My favourite country. Love from the uk 🇬🇧
Food courts are all cool and of course you Rock bro..
Awesome job Mikey thumbup .
Keep doing your thing Bro
That s sick Mikey .
Love you, cheeky Burger!
0:54 It's falling!!!
Why do you always slurp your pasta man lol
That's Asian way of eating noodles.
@@manchesterunitedno7 you’re not wrong but isn’t it considered poor manners in Europe and/or especially in Italy??
@@DevAngel426 Yeah it is in Europe indeed.
@@DevAngel426who gives a fuck about what Europe or their manners, it’s normal to slurp noodles in Asia
@@MrMohaa1234and that’s all fine and dandy but he ain’t in Asia here 🙄
Mmmmmm those 🥙 pita wrap 🥙 sandwiches.😊 👉 Peace & respect to Mike Chen showing and telling about some foods in Italy.
The Gyro meat here in the US is mostly beef. It is hard to find restraunts that get that nice blend of beef and lamb. It gets too expensive here.
I agree 100%. I was lucky to work next to a Greek restaurant in Orlando and their gyro meat was lamb. It's just not the same when it's beef or beef/lamb mixed.
There is no lamp gyros in Greece
Mike discovered a mall LOL
Have a great day, Mike ❤
why go through the trouble of blurring out the kid's face at burger king and not when you're eating pasta? lazy
Welcome to Europe's version of Buc-ees!😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅
I have one word yum ❤
I love spanikopita!
leave it to Mike to go to a gas station in Italy. lol.
Ok, I don't like the haters. But I gotta say your pronunciation of even English words was just horrible. pringLEEEEE not pringOOO. Please Mikey don't make me agree with haters.
Love your content 😊😊😊

Gueess you are not going home for Chinese New Year.
I have been in Greece back in 2009 with the AIDA cruise and I still have a trauma from that mountainbike tour across Rhodos. And that I had a heatstroke while climbing to the Acropolis. lol
Paprika pringels are the best
i dig mike :)
What hotel did you stay at in Athens?
I live in Kirksville. Go bulldogs
First highway in the world was built in italy.
So AutoGrill is sort of kind of like Buc-Ees without the BBQ?
Hey there!
Buccees ? Lol
Who'da thunk Italy had a Buckee's?
RiCOATa cheese 💀
Stop show all that delicious food im trying to lose some weight he he😋
4.7€ for a pork gyro pita? What a ripoff... Most places have a price of 3.5-3.8€
You know he threw away the Burger King meal.
Why? He said it was delicious except the bun was heavy
Just an FYI, gyros are American. Sold to American tourists like you so they can say they had “authentic” Greek food 😂
Wild how their meat actually looks like meat at the fast food restaurants. Not the USA! Just ground bi-products!
Is it really a food court, if there is not a screaming kid?
Italian buccees
wowooww
