@Kaya what Turkish food? What were your people eating before they dared to invade and slaughter the Greeks???? This all is not Mongolian food.None of it.
Greek street food is very good, clean and fresh, I want to eat it when I see it. May the people of Greece be healthy. Thank you very much for presenting it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

@@ozlem27.Nope you stole it all from Persia my friend. Your land topologies are all of 🇬🇷 Origin and Name. Yous are the descendants of immigrants from south East Asia (Mongols) who took over that land from Byzantine empire. Persian cuisine has many of them Culinary delights which u stole and relabeled as Turkish!🤣🤣🤣 Ps 🇬🇷 Culture and Civilization predates that of the so called Turkish settlement. Also the first Gastronomy book was written in 🇬🇷 as is the origin of the word Gastronomy also 🇬🇷. Learn your facts!!!🤣😂😂
Every single food and drink I can see in this Greek series looks beautiful🤩They look like works of art!! I'd like to see the compilation of the Mexican series. Thank you for the amazing video Luke-san😀 Stay safe!! From Japan.😁
These are all 🇹🇷Turkish foods stolen by so called "greeks" = christianized Turks +Albanians +Macedonians. They've only adding "e", "i" or "s" at the end of the word and saying "it's greek food", LOL 😅.
Absolutely love Greek food. Some of the best food ever. Yummm I have a friend who gets to visit Greece about every year :) So sorry you guys broke up. I hope you both will be ok. Gyro and Souvlaki and lamb chops so my fav. Also nice Greek salad with lots of Feta Cheese mmm Nothing like Greek Yogurt the best ever with that honey and nuts just love that. Greek/Turkish coffee some of the best. Yumm. You got me hungry to day ending it with that yummy Baklava !! yummm lol Hope you have a great day stay safe ♥
Greek food is amazing and there’s a lot of crossover with Turkish food eg the kolourakia are just another take on simit for example. That part of the world is epic for gastronomes. Personally, I’ve never had lokoumathes stuffed with Nutella and covered in pistachios - my mum has always kept it basic, so just syrup only. My kids would love them with chocolate!
Greek food is one of my favorite types of food! I could eat Greek food everyday! I hope one day to go to Greece! My mouth was watering the whole time! I’m sorry about you and Sabrina Luke!
@@kayacenk4164 Greeks where making dough deserts , like Loukoumades, centuries before Turks apear in the field. Or are you one of those thinking that Greeks sprouted in the area 600 years ago, along with the Osmans? So try to work on your complex...
@@kayacenk4164 You don't need to repeat at every comment of this wonderfull vlog your toxic Turkish chauvinist-nationalist distortions. Excepting mutton BBQ, yoghurt and some kinds of cheese Turks brought with them from Central Asia, there's nothing "Turkish" in their cuisine. The most dishes they like so much to call "Turkish" are Byzantine (ie Greek), Armenian, Arabic, Balkanic and Jewish.
@@kayacenk4164 Arabs aren't Turks, are they... and all these "Turkish" food where known in middle East, before Turks. As yogurt which was also known in middle East since 5000 years ago, and in ancient Greece as oxygala, looong before Turks arrived in the area (about 11th century ad). Using the so called "Turkish" words (that many derive from Persian and arabics), doesn't make these Turkish. So don't insist. You make your self look so naive
Thanks Luke for another Wonderful video. My mouth is drooling. Tomorrow I will go to a Greek restaurant. I'm in Ontario and in my city there are Greek restaurants. Ooh wonderful seafood!!!!!
I am in therapy and please believe me it helps if you pick stuff up your shoulders that you never thought you could talk about anybody else it takes a while but step by step it comes away smart man more I adore you for being that way peace kid ☮️🇺🇸
I really hope you enjoyed your stay here in Athens! Your video is excellent!!!Even though I am from Athens I didn't know some of the places you visited ! I will surely try them!!! Greetings from Greece!!! :D
Everything looks delicious, the more I watch, the more I get hungry, I really want to try everything! Anyway, I like Loukoumades the most, I can eat one anytime, whether it's for breakfast or afternoon tea! The brewing method of Greek coffee looks like very similar to Turkish coffee, but it seems to be coffee with chocolate, I really want to drink it!

I had a similar sandwich in Marseille or Toulon, France back in 1988 while serving in Navy. Us sailors refereed to it as the "smash" sandwich. Consisting of the cooked ground beef, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, pickle, cheese and the crispy fries all placed in a panni and sealed shut on all sides with a flat hot grill press. Absolute heaven after a night out drinking and just before going back onboard the ship for curfew.
In the last episode, he was in Istanbul, Türkiye. Now, he is in Athens, Greece. Awesome! What is next, Piraeus, Nafplio, Kalamatas? Show us the best and most authentic food in Greece!
You had your spinach pie in front of the old Athens Stock Exchange. It brings me memories of people I knew that lost a lot of money pretending to know how to short the stock prices and in reality they were just gambling and they lost everything.
I wish you quote how much all food you eat cost. I know you do for a few items. But would love to know more what the street food is costing Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 🍁. Ps. I think that mini coffee cup receptacle is made from copper not brass.
I would feel at home in Greece seeing this video except for the pork chops part. That is where the feeling of familiarity ends. Simit, coffee, baklava, döner etc...
No idea why there aren't more Greek-food outlets in the UK - it's gorgeous AND (for the majority of it !) healthy !. For me, it's quite simply THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD.!

From my search in... Internet, some ancient words from Athenaeus, Deipnosofists, many many, many ages ago, before Turks come to Asia Minor... GASTRIS: "And also,' says he, 'in Crete they make a kind of cheesecake (sic, phyllo pastry is described in the ancient text) which they call gastris. And it is made thus: - Take some Thasian and Pontic nuts and some almonds, and also a poppy. Roast this last with great care, and then take the seed and pound it in a clean mortar; [648] then, adding the fruits which I have mentioned above, beat them up with boiled honey, putting in plenty of pepper, and make the whole into a soft mass, (but it will be of a black colour because of the poppy;) flatten it and make it into a square shape; then, having pounded some white sesame, soften that too with boiled honey, and draw it out into two cakes, placing one beneath and the other above, so as to have the black surface in the middle, and make it into a neat shape.' These are the recipes of that clever writer on confectionary, Chrysippus". (I tried to find an english translation, because for many people greek are totally "greek to them"...😁).(Source: www.attalus.org/old/athenaeus14c.html) And an... homeric recipe of souvlaki = eis ovelous (=spits) So he spake, and Patroclus gave ear to his dear comrade. He cast down a great fleshing-block in the light of the fire and laid thereon a sheep's back and a fat goat's, and the chine of a great hog withal, rich with fat. And Automedon held them for him, while goodly Achilles carved. [210] Then he sliced the meat with care and spitted it upon spits, and the son of Menoetius, a godlike man, made the fire blaze high. But when the fire had burned down and the flame was abated, he scattered the embers and laid thereover the spits, and sprinkled the morsels with holy salt when he had set them upon the fire-dogs. But when he had roasted the meat and laid it on platters, [215] Patroclus took bread and dealt it forth on the table in fair baskets, while Achilles dealt the meat. Himself he sate him down over against godlike Odysseus, by the other wall, and bade Patroclus, his comrade, offer sacrifice to the gods; [220] (Homer, ILIAD, BOOK 9, www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0134%3Abook%3D9%3Acard%3D205) Everything is written and curved on the marbles and painted on pottery many ages ago, only the names were changed.
Culinary culture in Ancient Greece is known for its simplicity and reflecting the agricultural inadequacies of the period.[1] During this period, dietary habits are based on wheat, olive oil and wine, which are the three main elements of Mediterranean cuisine. source wikipedia
This channel is not the same without Sabrina 💔. I am sad that you guys have broken up. She has contributed much, if not equal, to the succes of this channel. I really hope Luke will share the success from this channel with her.

God tier cuisine. All I actually want from my food, got that Balkan swag with all the lamb and pork and also Mediterranean with the sea food. Lots of salad and white bread with all the dishes. That balkava also looks 11/10 honestly. Literally perfection imo
Yemek tarihini kültürünü araştırdığınızda şu an Yunan yemeği olarak bilinen çoğu yemeğin Anadolu kültürü ile oluşmuş Türk yemekleri olduğunu anlardınız. Yunanistan adalar ülkesi olduğu için yemek kültürü ona gelişmiştir. çoğu ürün Balkan coğrafyasını 600 sene yönetmiş Osmanlı ile geldiğini görürsünüz. Ayrıca Osmanlı zamanında Balkanlarda oluşmuş yemek kültürü ayrı güzeldir
Let me guess, you wrote that this is not greek food but Turkish. Turks took most of their foods from Arabs, Greeks, kurds and all neighboring nations. You obviously didn't bring most of your foods from the steppes of Mongolia. If you truly think Turkish cuisine is superior, then why aren't turks amongst the healthier nations in the world like Greeks are? Where is your olive oil and your beautiful healthy sea food turks?
Η Τουρκική κουζίνα ειναι εξίσου νόστιμη αν και όχι τόσο υγιεινη.μην ξεχνάτε επίσης ότι υπήρχαν πριν την ελευση σας απο την κεντρική Ασία πολλοι πολιτισμοί με ανεπτυγμένη μεταξυ αλλων και την γαστρονομια! Οι νεοαφιχθεντες λοιπον Τούρκοι πήραν στοιχεία από την γαστρονομία αυτων των πολιτισμών, τα εμπλουτισαν,τα εξελιξαν και έκαναν αρκετα πιο νόστιμα και πιο δυνατά! Όλες λοιπον οι χώρες της ανατολικής μεσογείου έχουν αρκετα κοινά χαρακτηριστικά, αλλα και αρκετες διάφορες στο φαγητό, είναι όμως σχεδόν όλα νοστιμα! Σε αυτο που διαφέρει η ελληνική κουζίνα ειναι στην νησιωτικη και νοτια Ελλάδα όπου τα υλικά είναι πιο αγνά και τα φαγητά πιο υγιεινά με την Κρήτη και την περιοχή της Μάνης στην νοτια Πελοπόννησο να ειναι στην κορυφή της γαστρονομίας!
When you go to Greece, make sure you buy local fruit, I promise you'll be amazed by the taste. Incomparable.
And to think that my mum always complains that fruit and veg don't taste the same anymore ( I'm greek) and to be honest some really don't. What do they feed you in the states? ( I'm assuming you're American).
Also, when you come to Greece always buy fruit and veg from your local farmers market, that's where the good stuff is at and it's usually fresher and cheaper especially when you go later like at 11 or 12 when they sell out all their stuff

Always look foward to your weekly video, also binging on your previous ones. Great sponsor.
Sending you lots of love from Australia.
Hello from greece!
I had a similar sandwich in Marseille or Toulon, France back in 1988 while serving in Navy. Us sailors refereed to it as the "smash" sandwich. Consisting of the cooked ground beef, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, pickle, cheese and the crispy fries all placed in a panni and sealed shut on all sides with a flat hot grill press. Absolute heaven after a night out drinking and just before going back onboard the ship for curfew.
In the last episode, he was in Istanbul, Türkiye. Now, he is in Athens, Greece. Awesome! What is next, Piraeus, Nafplio, Kalamatas? Show us the best and most authentic food in Greece!
He is not in Greece, this is a compilation from his old videos
Visit the islands then
You had your spinach pie in front of the old Athens Stock Exchange. It brings me memories of people I knew that lost a lot of money pretending to know how to short the stock prices and in reality they were just gambling and they lost everything.
La Grecia è bellissima 👍👏🇮🇹
So IS italy too my Friend!!WE greeks love italy❤️❤️

Awesome vlog ❤ from New Zealand
Greek food is simply the best.
*stolen from the Great TURKS.
Basically both great. Our border’s didn’t exist back in the days.
I wish you quote how much all food you eat cost. I know you do for a few items. But would love to know more what the street food is costing
Cheers from Canada

Ps. I think that mini coffee cup receptacle is made from copper not brass.
So sorry that you and Sabrina broke up, I figured that happened but wasn’t too sure. It happens and that’s ok 🙏🏼 great video as always Luke.
Thanks Angie for always supporting
@@LukeMartin youre welcome
I would feel at home in Greece seeing this video except for the pork chops part. That is where the feeling of familiarity ends. Simit, coffee, baklava, döner etc...
I was wondering why the videos were getting better...that explains it! Oh and keep up the good work
Thanks for the recommendations! Keep up the good foodie adventures!
You remind me of Mathew Broderick back in the 80s a little of that dork thing going on
No idea why there aren't more Greek-food outlets in the UK - it's gorgeous AND (for the majority of it !) healthy !. For me, it's quite simply THE BEST FOOD IN THE WORLD.!
Bravo 👏 you have the best greek food in your video 😊 yummy
Excellent choices 👍
It really breaks my Heart, that you and Sabrina broke up! 😔💔 You have been such an amazing Team together but i guess that's the way how Life goes sometimes! Sabrina is missing and i wish you both all the best - Thanx for lots of incredible Moments, u gave to the Community for so many Years!!!🙏😌❤❤❤
Sangat menikmati perjalanan kuliner ini👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗
Greek foods: Ctrl + c from TURKISH foods. Mission completed
Delicious cooking... Keep it up ✅🙂
Very sorry to hear about all of your personal problems we miss both of you but I’m not going to do anything drastic I just want to make sure that you’re OK I want to keep supporting your channel you’re very entertaining and very educational good luck keep up the good work please
I love Greek food... next time have ice cream in you frappe... we go to Corfu on the 29th Sept so looking forward to it.
a sidenote. You bought the gyro from one of the most touristic places in Greece. Pita gyro was 2.20 euro some years ago but due to the economy and the wars now its become almost 4 euro per pita.
Hy I am so sorry for you i hope you are ok and Sabrina,but you must go on,life is so hard but we must go on,beautiful video and i am always here,big fan and always like your beautiful videos!
NEED to go to Greece!

From my search in... Internet, some ancient words from Athenaeus, Deipnosofists, many many, many ages ago, before Turks come to Asia Minor... GASTRIS: "And also,' says he, 'in Crete they make a kind of cheesecake (sic, phyllo pastry is described in the ancient text) which they call gastris. And it is made thus: - Take some Thasian and Pontic nuts and some almonds, and also a poppy. Roast this last with great care, and then take the seed and pound it in a clean mortar; [648] then, adding the fruits which I have mentioned above, beat them up with boiled honey, putting in plenty of pepper, and make the whole into a soft mass, (but it will be of a black colour because of the poppy;) flatten it and make it into a square shape; then, having pounded some white sesame, soften that too with boiled honey, and draw it out into two cakes, placing one beneath and the other above, so as to have the black surface in the middle, and make it into a neat shape.' These are the recipes of that clever writer on confectionary, Chrysippus". (I tried to find an english translation, because for many people greek are totally "greek to them"...😁).(Source: www.attalus.org/old/athenaeus14c.html)
And an... homeric recipe of souvlaki = eis ovelous (=spits)
So he spake, and Patroclus gave ear to his dear comrade. He cast down a great fleshing-block in the light of the fire and laid thereon a sheep's back and a fat goat's, and the chine of a great hog withal, rich with fat. And Automedon held them for him, while goodly Achilles carved. [210] Then he sliced the meat with care and spitted it upon spits, and the son of Menoetius, a godlike man, made the fire blaze high. But when the fire had burned down and the flame was abated, he scattered the embers and laid thereover the spits, and sprinkled the morsels with holy salt when he had set them upon the fire-dogs. But when he had roasted the meat and laid it on platters, [215] Patroclus took bread and dealt it forth on the table in fair baskets, while Achilles dealt the meat. Himself he sate him down over against godlike Odysseus, by the other wall, and bade Patroclus, his comrade, offer sacrifice to the gods; [220] (Homer, ILIAD, BOOK 9, www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0134%3Abook%3D9%3Acard%3D205)
Everything is written and curved on the marbles and painted on pottery many ages ago, only the names were changed.
Culinary culture in Ancient Greece is known for its simplicity and reflecting the agricultural inadequacies of the period.[1] During this period, dietary habits are based on wheat, olive oil and wine, which are the three main elements of Mediterranean cuisine.

stop stealing
search and find your ancient greek cuisine
don't be soda be a legend
@@clmky5485 I have not enough time to search in Wikipedia. Wikipedia is too poor for knowledge. I prefer searching in ancient texts for my recipes.
bizim lokmayı LOUKOUMADES yapmışlar :)
This channel is not the same without Sabrina 💔. I am sad that you guys have broken up. She has contributed much, if not equal, to the succes of this channel. I really hope Luke will share the success from this channel with her.
Why did they break up .?
@@kati3874 🤷🏻♀️I want to know too
that's just your opinion. also, stop being nosey. you're annoying.

Hi, where was the Bougatsa place actually? Thanks
Luke you are a star of your Chanel!
Well done food vid.
Thx
So sorry to hear you to have broken up 💞💞
lamb chops with knife? BLOCK !!!😂
God tier cuisine. All I actually want from my food, got that Balkan swag with all the lamb and pork and also Mediterranean with the sea food. Lots of salad and white bread with all the dishes. That balkava also looks 11/10 honestly. Literally perfection imo
Beautiful vlog
Good food 🥑
Yemek tarihini kültürünü araştırdığınızda şu an Yunan yemeği olarak bilinen çoğu yemeğin Anadolu kültürü ile oluşmuş Türk yemekleri olduğunu anlardınız. Yunanistan adalar ülkesi olduğu için yemek kültürü ona gelişmiştir. çoğu ürün Balkan coğrafyasını 600 sene yönetmiş Osmanlı ile geldiğini görürsünüz. Ayrıca Osmanlı zamanında Balkanlarda oluşmuş yemek kültürü ayrı güzeldir
🤡🤡🤡
Sonuç olarak iki ülkede cacıktan simide kadar aynı şeyleri seviyor.
Let me guess, you wrote that this is not greek food but Turkish. Turks took most of their foods from Arabs, Greeks, kurds and all neighboring nations. You obviously didn't bring most of your foods from the steppes of Mongolia.
If you truly think Turkish cuisine is superior, then why aren't turks amongst the healthier nations in the world like Greeks are? Where is your olive oil and your beautiful healthy sea food turks?
Η Τουρκική κουζίνα ειναι εξίσου νόστιμη αν και όχι τόσο υγιεινη.μην ξεχνάτε επίσης ότι υπήρχαν πριν την ελευση σας απο την κεντρική Ασία πολλοι πολιτισμοί με ανεπτυγμένη μεταξυ αλλων και την γαστρονομια! Οι νεοαφιχθεντες λοιπον Τούρκοι πήραν στοιχεία από την γαστρονομία αυτων των πολιτισμών, τα εμπλουτισαν,τα εξελιξαν και έκαναν αρκετα πιο νόστιμα και πιο δυνατά! Όλες λοιπον οι χώρες της ανατολικής μεσογείου έχουν αρκετα κοινά χαρακτηριστικά, αλλα και αρκετες διάφορες στο φαγητό, είναι όμως σχεδόν όλα νοστιμα! Σε αυτο που διαφέρει η ελληνική κουζίνα ειναι στην νησιωτικη και νοτια Ελλάδα όπου τα υλικά είναι πιο αγνά και τα φαγητά πιο υγιεινά με την Κρήτη και την περιοχή της Μάνης στην νοτια Πελοπόννησο να ειναι στην κορυφή της γαστρονομίας!
What countries food do you prefer Luke?Greek or Turkish food?
Everyone prefers original and authentic Greek food of course.
