What a happy child !! when he is eating Greek Food his face glows !!! Nα σας ζήσει !! ( may he lives many many years) !!!
Some of the best food we've had during our 9+ months of traveling! Thanks for watching and feel free to check out some of our other videos. Plenty of Hays eating food... :)
Greek food is 1 of the best ❤️
That baby ate everything even the liver,that tells you how good the food is.
He’s very picky now! Or maybe it’s just that Greek food spoiled him! 😀
@@StephandPete 😂
Love how the little one tries everything. You are developing good food habits at a young age, well done!
We hope so! He's still pretty picky most of the time, but at least he's being exposed to a lot. Thanks for watching!
A kid that devours yogurt like my nephew is undoubtly going to be a happy adult. Old people used to say that milk and yogurt make the childs grow up.
Hehe, I like this theory. I, too, love yogurt. ESPECIALLY in Greece.
I would go to Greece for the food alone 🤤
We miss it! 😋
Do it really worth it.....and the prices are very cheap sometimes it feels like a highway robbery.......Best food is in Athens lots of variety..go where the locals eat ........Stay away from Mykonos and Santorini overhyped......
WELL WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR....WE ARE KNOWN NOT ONLY FOR FOOD.....The summery feeling has just started and Athens is looking fine !!!!
@@dougk2932 I agree with you
Greece is not only restorants and food!
Missing Greece and all the delicious food. Your son is so adorable!
Thank you! He's a cutie. 😍
He LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE ANGEL !!!
Actually here in Greece, we almost cook all of our food with olive oil. We use butter just for sweats. So we buy olive oil in big quantities from the producers. Great video. Usually, when someone comes to Greece for a week, when he returns home, weights about 3 kilos more!!!
Hahaha the food was so good. We miss it! And the wine!
Sweets Friend....sweets....sweat IS.....ewwww ahaha😂😂
I could watch a one hour long video of the little guy eating Greek Jogurt 😂🤣
😂😂😂
!!!!!!!
I think that your kid enjoyed greek food 🥰🥰🥰 Come back soon.
He did! And we’d love to!
Έχουμε το καλύτερο φαγητό τη να λεμε τώρα
So adorable child ❤️ so happy seeing his face satisfied with Greek food ..greetings from Greece ,thanks for your lovely video !
Thanks for watching! Greece is the best!
I've followed y'all since early on, and while researching our trip to Greece, this one came up. It was interesting comparing Hays now to where he was then. He's grown up so much in front of us all.
I appreciate you continuing to watch our videos. The number one reason we started was to remember this time with Hays and we’re so glad we did because it’s amazing to see him grow up. Have the best time in Greece! Highly recommend that food tour- I can connect you on Insta if you might be interested.
We watched this because we're planning a trip to Greece in a few years. Thanks for the great info! Enjoyed watching so much we're going to watch all of them. What an exciting and memorable opportunity for you. Kind of sad to see that your trip is almost over but also excited as we have lots of videos to catch up on. :)
We love hearing that we can help other folks travel!! I hope you have an amazing trip! Let us know what you think of our other videos.
I think that your adorable child had the better vacation's
Hehe. We all had a great time in Greece! Gosh I miss that food.
08:46 - That is a 'gyros' made with 'souvlaki' meat (pork, lamp, chicken) and not the meat scraped from the rotating spit (at 08:26)
- Kontosouvli is something else all together, more like grilled lamp or pork cooked like a souvlaki, hence the name !
The lil' guy is the main character! 😄👍
Of course! Thanks for watching!
Cool! Mom and dad. Really, appreciated.
Thank you guys...BOY FLASHBACK ..before I got married and moved away, I was usually in some cafes in KOUKAKI>>Actually it was in KOUKAKI that my mum and dad met...!!!!! I wish you come again and be sure,you will enjoy yourselves just as much !!!!
It’s such a great neighborhood! Thanks for watching!
I just came across your video guys and although its almost a year old, I can confirm that Feyrouz is still the bomb! Whenever I am down town, it's always the first place that comes to mind along with Etnico, if I'm hungry and I am in for a quick snack. To Steki tou Ilia is also quite good if you're craving for chops
Glad to hear that! Another commenter wasn't a fan, but we really loved it, and it was great value! And the staff was really kind, despite the other viewer's experience. Thanks for watching! I hope we'll get to revisit Greece soon. Can't believe this was almost a year ago!
The Little Fella is going to grow up to be a Big Man !!! Awesome. Lovely Video.
cant wait to be back in a couple weeks.
Have a great trip!
@@StephandPete thank you
Great video unpretentious and genuine! The number one star of the video is your son!!!! He is a natural. Lotsa of stores where I used to drink beer served in that small glass which I agree with you it keeps it cool but in summer when its hot you are gonna gulp down half a bottle of ice cold beer in one goe. Who is gonna wait for the small glass to be filled again!!!!!
Unpretentious and genuine are the best compliments we could ask for! We're not trying to "create content" but to simply document our authentic experiences and hope that some folks will enjoy! Haha, too funny about the small glass.
Nice video. Thanks 🙏👍
Thanks for watching!
Great
True our food is grear
Oh my God, this baby can eat. I was very difficult when I was his age
He’s a bit pickier these days! Or maybe we just set the bar high with Greek food! Thanks for watching! 🙂
@@StephandPete I would make my mom cry because I wouldn't eat. I glad that you had a good time here in Greece.
The wee man loves his grub
Truer words have never been spoken. 😂
That fried cheese aka sayanaki was seriously burned guys. I am greek and I have never seen somethng like this !
I love burnt things. 🤷🏻♀️
Yes..i notice this Also!! Why tf they served this😖😡im really mad about it
the son is a young Matt Damon
That’s a new one! 🙃
@@StephandPete haha am I the only one who told you so?
@@dokanyon yes! Definitely the first and only time we've heard that! :)
🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷♥️♥️♥️🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
🙏🙏🙏
Why am i watching this, I'm on diet. Unfortunately...
That kid will never eat this good again. Greece has the best food in the World. Period. Discuss for second place!
😂😂😂 second place goes to…hmm…India, China, Thailand…all contenders.
@@StephandPete bé careful of what you will eat there.....🤮
Feyrouz is not Greek food it's Syrian. Feyrouz is quite expensive for their quality and the staff is really rude.
We mentioned it was Syrian and we had a great experience. Sorry you feel that way! Thanks for watching our video. The video is the best place we ate in Athens. Not the best Greek food we ate in Athens. 🙃
@@StephandPete No worries ...Im just kinda shocked and somewhat annoyed that joints like Feyrouz are now the foodie's destination. That's exacltly what made the personnel to behave as if they worked at Tiffany' s NY to put it in a very polite way. The irony is that a few hundred meters from this joint you can find authetric and absolutely stunnig food from emigrants from the Middle East.
Lamb is better without lemon!!!
Why on earth do I hear a bouzouki theme everytime a non-Greek makes a video about something Greek! For heaven's sake! Enough is enough. Bouzouki is such a small fragment
of our culture!
Great point. This was in my super early days…a weird choice. 🙃
Pls continue using bouzouki for your Greek videos. Excuse the friend above. He has no idea what bouzouki represents for greek music. Bouzouki and Rebetico is acknowledged by Unesco as worlds intangible heritage. And yes food music and dance is a large fragment of our culture. Enough is enough
Ask Greek old people where is the best place to sample Greek food, they know better than you. In Greece, only few places do keep to authentic & traditional Greek food.
Of course Greek people know better than me! Several of these were recommended to us by locals or local articles/news.
Fish fish fish you are in Greece for Christ sake !!!!!!!!!! Your loss.😉✌
We spent almost two weeks on islands (Folegandros, Milos, Sifnos) and ate all of the fish there.
@@StephandPete thank God you didn't go to Mykonos your sponsor would've have dropped you.😂✌
The Pastichio the Musaka? The real Saganaki?
Seams to me all the places you've been too are touristy, the platia is a nice place but their is many more very nice places to eat in Athens,.
On the Islands and in Northern Greece it's good to meet up with a local and ask them where to go for the best food.
I live near Rhodes and I wouldn't eat anywhere in the old Town unless I had too, ( out of the way places especially near the sea have the best food) and out of the way family owned little restaurants in the old city in Rhodes have very good food also.😉✌
ΝΕΧΤ ΤΙΜΕ TRY ARXIDIA KAPAMA
Ohhhh what’s that?
innapropriate is what it is
@@StephandPete better delete this comment, it's heavily offensive and gross
getting fat in Greece...
worth it
DNA Test you have different hair color with your son.
DNA is wild. 😆
Damn.. I didn't noticed until i read this. Both parents are dark haired, but the kid is fully blonde! Odd stuff 😂
The ugly graffiti everwhere
Stupid humans don't make so many children 😔😔🤯🥵😰
Thanks for watching. 🙃
Eating meat can lead to various cancers, dementia, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and corona. bon appetit.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL IN THIS VIDEO ..IS YOUR LITLE HERCULES EATING EVERYTHING WITH REAL JOY.
