Just a small correction here, Greek refugees did not come back to their native country, their ancestors had been living in what is today Turkey for 2500 years up until 1920's. So they left their ancestral places to come to Greece as refugees. They were ethnic Greeks but modern Greek state was not their native country. Considering that a 5 million Greece at the time had to absorb 1.5 million refugees overnight, you can understand that their influence in mainland Greek culture was massive. Bougatsa is one of thousands of these influences.
many of the ottoman dishes you mention pre-existed the arrival of the ottomans, but were integrated into their cuisine as well during their stay, bugatsa for example was made during east roman times.
Greek person here... I would like to applaud your pronunciation... You did a pretty great job! Just two things... Dolmades are not only made with vine leaves, they can also be made with cabbage leaves, or onions. Also keftedes come in an array of types made for example with courgette, tomato, onion, kaseri (a type of cheese) and the list goes on... I hope you enjoy your stay and you visit other places of our country and not just the capital.
Non Greek person here, bit I made a point of learning some basic Greek because I love your country.
I noticed that some of the stressed syllables were a bit off. Would you agree that Greeks find it difficult to understand non-native speakers if the place the emphasis on the wrong syllables? glyKO, not GLYko.
Luckily you are kind enough to place an accent above the stressed syllable. (Unless the word is in upper case.)
@@DrDaveW I think most of the times we know what to expect from a non native speaker (like the "r" not rolling and the "g" pronounced as γκ and not γ and of course the stressed syllables to be off) so we understand what they say. The pronunciation must be reeeeeeally of for us to not understand. We know our language is hard and we are flexible lol.
I'm Jordanian and we alos make dolmades with grape and cabbage leaves so good !
We Cypriots call Dolmades Koupepkia. Does Dolmades mean tomatoes? We also cook Koulogassi !
@@johnchrysostomou9417 No, it comes from the Turkish word "dolma", meaning stuffed. In short, this is a Turkish dish.
Greek food is very tasty! The Greeks are very hospitable! The Greeks gave the world a great civilization!
Greek civilization is 10,000 years old.
Athens the great city of the world! Hello everyone from California! Thanks for the wonderful excursion!
Thank you for everything you have mentioned here... We are not perfect but we always try which is hard given the fact of others copy our style and cousine only for commercial reasons including all the balkan nationalities who live inside hells-Greece and some ignorance of the youngest generations
@@vasilis717 who copies your food?? we just happen to eat similar things because A) the ottoman empire happened, 2) greeks settled in many countries even in ancient times, including my country romania - on the black sea coast; 3)we have similar climates - so wtf are u saying
@@vasilis717 instead of being a nationalist pri/ck why don't you promote your cuisine lol
Thank you for your praise for Turkish foods 😂
Excellent job as a Greek person i enjoyed your introduction of the Greek food and coffee and etc. Nice job 😁 thank you!!!
Evxaristo!! Glad you enjoyed the video 🥰
Excellent job?
She presents traditional Greek cuisine as Turkish!!!!
I'm Greek and i can say for sure that's the best guide i've ever watched and totally accurate
Evxaristo poli! That means a lot to me Basilis! ☺️ 🇬🇷
We just came back from 2 weeks touring in Greece, loved the video, brought back great memories!
I miss my captain nikolaos chroniapolos very good captain in marmaras he always give me greek food and one of my favorite gyro with pita, gemista, pastichio, musaka, pacis, gigantis, souvlaki, fasolakia, briam, horta, And dessert that i love baclavas, halvas, galaktoboreko, loukomades, and many more hehe i forget the other. i hope to see u again my good captain greetings from Phillipines your messboy before 😊🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
OMG! I have not see any other video that presents Greek foods like yours. It is like a little encyclopedia of Greek cuisine.
Quick, short but enough to describe each item. Excellent job.
Thanks so much Garip, that means a lot and I’m really pleased you found the video informative! ☺️🇬🇷
Pay attention to 1:30 there’s no greek food at all. When they separated from the Ottoman Empire they just brought the Ottoman cuisine with them. End of the story! Read a bit more about food and you’d see that everything starts with the palace!
You may have the ONLY video on RUclips where the Greek words are pronounced well- and I’ve watched many. Thank you for not butchering the language as it’s not that difficult. I enjoyed the video very much!
This is superb.
Any other youtube video on Greek gastronony doesn't hold up a candle to this gem.
Well done.
Thanks so much Miguel, really glad you’ve enjoyed this video ☺️ 🇬🇷
As a Proud Greek here, I have to say I love that girls attitude pronation, and I can also feel her love towards Our amazing country ❤️❤️ And by the way I also like everything she showed apart from Tsipouro.. She is pretty near to my taste 👍👍Gorgeous video. Congratulations 😘
Just recently traveled to Athens and Kreta Island. Oh mannn! I am amazed by the beauty of that country. Greek food is a mixture of the Middle East, very flavorful and creamy. There’s a pastry stores in every corner streets and coffee shops. To greek, that’s breakfast for them. And I’m very surprised that a lot of Greek smoke, even as young as 14 years old 😳.
Thank you very much for your visit to my country!!!! Excellent video!!! Thank you again!!!! 😃😃😃
So much energy. I was half asleep and the way you talk just woke me up XD
Amazing video!! Excellent!!
I've always wanted to travel to Greece. It looks so beautiful
If I don't go every few years I get depressed
Very well done. Thank you!
I would like to thank you for visiting my country and making a video out of Greek food. I see you are very knowledgeable also on history culture and food and I would like to congratulate you for that.
Glad to hear from you 📚
Very nice informative video. Thank you
amazing video, thanks for sharing!
You earned a sub with this. Wonderful, knowledgeable presentation. Best wishes.
I was so impressed with the way you pronounced the “geia sas” at the beginning. I’m Greek and I can’t say it so well.
you kidding?
Lmfao
Great presentation,great city
you're being so genuinely enthusiastic in your videos, this is contagious!
Aww that’s so great to hear, you’ve made my day Róża ❤️
I have to say your pronunciation is spot on! I am quite impressed! Bravo
I like the Greek cookies with the powdered sugar.
I like souvlaki, Greek hamburger, gyro, pastitsio, moussaka, feta cheese, the rice with the red sauce sprinkled on it, and a few other dishes.
Great video! Many thanks
The best food in the world!!!!!only Greece!!! Oooppaaa!!
Being from NYC , I've had a lot of Greek food. I'm sure it's a little different in Greece. We had a great restaurant in downtown NYC called the Delphi, but it closed years ago.
Nice to see your lovely video s.
Thank you
Really good 👍
complimenti signorina con begli occhi...........μπραβο!!!!!
Clever and beautiful? Dangerous combination. Love the video , quite accurate. Bravo!
You are super!!!!!!
This is awesome!! I wish you were in my life lol
A very informative video. Learned lots and can’t wait to be there.
Will appreciate the name of the sandwich place in a corner that you recommended. Thanks 🫶🏻
Excellent description of Greek food!! Thank you!!!
She basically told us how Greeks stole our dishes.
Thanks so much Valia! ☺️
And no lol, I’m NOT saying the Greeks stole anyone’s dishes - I’m talking about cultural exchange and commonalities!
Sovlaki & Baklava🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️
Baklava is Turkish
@@eradgz0924 there are many types, this one is greek
@@balkanwitch5747Baklava is Turkish, but Turkish baklava still tastes better
awesome! what are the names of the restaurants where you got all this food? we are going to Greece pretty soon and we have to idea where to eat
Don't worry. The country is full of places you can enjoy traditional food. Certain thing is that you are going to have a wonderful time here!! Happy holidays!!
mm, greek salad looks like a healthy thing to make at home.
melitzanosalata - aubergine/garlic oily slop = but it tastes amazing with crusty bread
Great video! Good job! From an Athenian!
I love you ❤
You love octupus?! Instant follower :DD
Hahaha welcome! 🐙
♥♥♥
👍👍👍👍👍
I’m glad you taught us how to order. It’s the least you can do when visiting another country. I’ll definitely be ordering in Greek!
hi i would like to inform you that the meat on the skewers is not originated from othomans is way older and is from ancient greece it was called kandavlos .
Hi..
What is the name of the dessert at 11:18 ??? (sticky orange cake)
once I visited Greece, I ate this one... it was super sweet and I cannot forget it...
and I am looking for it name....for 10 yrs....
"portokalopita / πορτοκαλόπιτα"
@@a_aq163 thank you alice
I don't think this is portokalopita (a sweet made with oranges) but chalvas. When she says "orange cake" in the video, i think she means the color and not the fruit - ingredient.
There are various types of chalvas and this one was chalvás farsálon.
Spanakopita with a bit of ketchup on the side and ice cold frappe (I hate coffee but frappe is my guilty pleasure). Also, ice cold Ouzo for breakfast gets you ready for the day!
💙💙💙💙
I want to go to greece too :(
❤⚘
Hey beautiful your post is making fall in love 😘😘 ......
Me too Greek siuuuuu

im also a "glyko" koffee person 😅

How does the , bring the seafood to a restaurant work in the central athens market?
Athens is practically surrounded by sea. For example the distance from piraeus(our largest Port) to Athens is a 20 minute ride so it is really easy for the restaurants to have fresh fish if they want to.
@@dimitrabir.4177 Dimitra, you didn't read his comment properly.
'How does the "bring the seafood to a restaurant" work in the central Athens market?'
ie "How does it work, if you want to buy your own seafood and then go to a restaurant and tell them to prepare that for you"
He is asking this because it is mentioned in 9:49
@@Itwasalwaysme_Noone oh Ok. In that case you have to find a restaurant willing to do it for one and a restaurant you can trust of course. There are many people who do it. Some fishermen also. Truth be told I don't think it's an easy task for a tourist. I believe Not many restaurants would be willing to do it. On the other hand I don't work in The tourist industry so I might be wrong.
I forgive you. There is only one MACEDONIA and (surprize) IT'S Greek since 4th century BC, since these guys are around at about 7nd centrury AD.
You forget γαλακτομπούρεκο.....
Best of best......
😉
Omg that sounds delicious! Is it quite similar to bougatsa? 😍
@@girlvsglobe
Yeees but more and more delicious.....
You gonna be remember me... 😉
Next time try galaktoboureko γαλακτομπούρεκο.
In my humble opinion is better than cheesecake.
Gyros; fries or no fries?
Let the battle begin!
I've seen a few sources on RUclips that claim gyros served as street food in Greece always have fries in them. However, I've eaten at a lot of Greek restaurants in America that are owned and run by authentic Greek immigrant families, and fries are never even metioned as an option.
So which is it?
我是新加坡公民，我周游列国，吃过不少食物，就要尝尝你这个美女介绍的，就是觉得你那边没有米饭都是吃小麦产品，就不知道好不好吃，谢谢你的介绍，You should be a foodie. I must come and try what you introduced.
Everyone talking about fancy coffee, the only coffee I can drink is 3/4 part sugary water and milk and 1/4 part weak coffee before my body complaining. Is that fancy enough? 😂😂😂😂
I am greek
Are you a Greek American because your accent in Greek is very good?
Ohh I’m not but appreciate the compliment! I’ve spent a fair bit of time in Greece and I love learning new languages - I post a lot of language learning videos here on my channel in fact ☺️🇬🇷
Also when you want your coffee unbelievable sweet cause I am to a psychopath like you you say "petimezi" 😂😂
Koulouri is not Ottoman, the name comes from Ancient Greek Kollix-Kollyra. There were 72 different kinds of bread in Ancient Greece, Kollyra was probably the slaves bread originally made from coarsely ground rye.
Super interesting, thank you for sharing!! ☺️
Girls vs Globe,
Οί Χρύσιππος κι ό Αθήναιος ό Δείπνο σοφιστής περιγράφουν τήν συνταγή μέ τήν οποία φτιάχνουμε σήμερα τόν μπακλαβά,
Γάστριν όπως τό έλεγαν πρίν χιλιάδες χρόνια στήν Κρήτη.
Υπάρχουν πολλές συνταγές πού θεωρούμε σύγχρονες αλλά είναι πολύ αρχαίες καί μέ πηγές.
😍 English Accent long gone far behind 😄🌷except when drinking alcohol LOL
πογατσα= погача > pogatcha. Refuges settled in 1921 are not Macedonians but Pontic origin from Turkey .
Pontic from MINOR ASIA not ''turkey''
@@andyrockevo Macedonians from kingdom of Macedonia not "greece". Greece is Roman name.
@@andyrockevolook at the map keep crying!
Is that Charlotte you look like someone I used to know
Lovely video. The foods are similar to all the other Mediterranean foods, with slight variations. But you forgot kunafa! 😮
I love Greek food
Habibi.....Come to India 🙌🏻
Greek food has been named numerous times the healthiest cuisine globally so i wouldnt call it unhealthy
Baklava is a Turkish dish
🇦🇿🇹🇷🇰🇬🇰🇿🇺🇿🇹🇲🇭🇺
you are soooo wrong saying that souvlaki and other foods/deserts (like bougatsa pastry or koulouri) are ottoman dishes. ottomans (and not Turks-yes there is a difference) were nomads and had little to nearly none cuisine culture because of their way of life. ottomans took (stole but ok) all the byzantine cuisine (food and deserts) when they conquired Konstantinoupolis in 1453. so next time be careful when you are refering to such issues especially when you may be wrong !
As a true history buff and researcher of cuisines you are spot on.
@@johnny_dc4475and yes I will even admit that many things we have been inspired by the Ottoman culture...why?...well because we where under occupation for 400+ years 😅..so it's normal that we have Ottoman cuisine inspired dishes but greek food is greek food
Source? Stop doing the same humiliation as your ancestors did and got swallowed.
What are you talking about? So-called Greek cuisine consists of 90% Turkish dishes. Even the names of dishes are of Turkish origin.
@@erdemozcan5435 OMG !!! are you serious? Turks were nomads from mount Kafkasos they had no cuisine ! they stole most of their current cuisine from the Byzantines after 1453 and the fall of Konstantinoupolis. and you dare call these dishes Turkish?
i was right that you post about Greek food without knowing anything about Greek food
You forgot loukoumades!!
Its also Turkish
She's cute
Otopia
Dolma is not Ottoman please. It existed in the Greek Constantinople cousin long before the ottomans. As well as many of the dishes ottomans have. Yes they have ottoman names but they are not ottoman food.
No it's not greek. It was invented in the Topkapi Palace and has a turkish name, which means something filled.
Dolma is a dish made in Turkey and other Turkic countries. It is a 100% Turkish dish, just like baklava and yoghurt.
Nice Greek (Turkish) Foods
Hey turk you learned what is food when your ottomans taken Byzantium
Before that you was in central Asia living in caves and eating lizards
Your profile is Greek, you like much Greece, your colours are Greek..... check your DNA. George
I'm sorry but when you talk about influences in Greece, before you mention Ottomans or Romans, you have to mention what influence the Byzantines and Alexander the Great had on the world before them.
Utopia
Stop eating your nails my love 😍 xxxxxx
Thank you for introducing some beautiful Turkish food.... Ooops i mean Greek😂
12,000 years The Greeks were living before the word " Romans " came around without any passages or texts --- plagiarisms taken from the Greeks ; and now...your yapping snapping mouth word salad.
Born place, Democratic
U are more greeķ than the greeks!!
Greece introduces ottoman foods better than us.We do not want to be an eastern country that does not produce and moves away from the world.(as a turk)
You are in Greece not in Turkey
"she's so fkn beautiful," he repeatedly muttered to himself while pressing the subscribe button.
Greek here, this lady has no clue where the food comes from, how it’s pronounced and not sure why she is comparing Greek to middle eastern, unsubscribed..
Bye ☺️
@@girlvsglobe You should move to Turkey where you belong
You mean that the most of the Greek food are from the Othman empire? I think that you sould know that before this Turkish empire it was the Byzantine empire that it was for about 1200 years! And this founds was Greek foods that was stolen from us! Before any videos make a research first!
She made a big mistake there. Its Byzantine not ottoman.
You just need to look at the etymological roots of food names. You can see that your so-called Greek cuisine consists of 90% Turkish dishes.
@@erdemozcan5435 the word etymology ετυμολογία is Greek also ...just like the foods the mongols ottoman stolen from the Greek byzantine empire
Thanks for the word etymology my ottoman friends. Chears
@@giannispsichountakis6073 Do you think that food belongs to the Greeks when written in the Greek alphabet? What a logic 😏 For example, “dolma” means stuffed in Turkish, baklava, yoghurt, tzatziki and this list goes on. Now accept the facts or sit down and cry.
@@erdemozcan5435Turks were nomads from central asia they didn't have their own cuisine, they just took the foods from the people they conquered (Byzantines, persians, egyptians etc.) and made them their own.
Forgive me but there are no influences from Italians, on the contrary we were conquered by the Romans and they were influenced by our food, for example in ancient Greece they cooked a dish for the dead called MAKARON, hence the word today. (blessed , makaritis) which means dead. They took it to their homeland Italy and named it (MAKARONI) today in your language spaghetti. The same happens with the Turks who were warriors without culture and tradition and actually stole us. Even traditional dances. Now that they have taken food one level higher it is true. In Istanbul are the best restaurants with flavors that do not exist in Greece. Greece was influenced by other things, even pizza existed under another name. I'm not lying to you, everyone is influenced by Greek culture and tradition, even your books and world history, but I drown when I hear that we were influenced by barbarians, while all this was already here.
Μακαρον λεγόταν τα σημερινά μελομακάρονα που τα γλυκαναν με μέλι στη κηδείες και στα μνημόσυνα. Τα σημερινά μακαρόνια τα κάνανε σαν τις χυλοπίτες και οι Ρωμαίοι τα εξελιξαν σε μακαρόνια η φτωχή δεν είχαν γάλα και ΑΥΓΆ και τα κάνανε με αλεύρι ΑΛΆΤΙ και νερό. Όσο για την Πίτσα έχεις δίκιο. 🌞
From the imaginary island of Makaron where was the place of eternal rest of dead heroes.. They were making also Makaropita for funerals
Pasta is traced back in Italy as far as 4th century BC. Greek presence in Italy began with the migrations of traders and colonial foundations in the 8th century BC. The only Italians who call pasta macaroni are Neapolitans and a couple of other southern provinces where there were Greeks. Napoli being the birth place of pizza is most probably influenced by Greeks seeing it was originally Neapolis. However the way it is made today is Italian as it represents the Italian flag with green, white and red. In the end it really doesn't matter who invented what. I am proud of the Greek culture as my husband is Greek and my kids also have Greek heritage but to call us Italians barbarians is dissapointing and I feel about you the way I feel about the turks who are always claiming all Greek dishes.
we do have influences from Italians and the French...Tselementes who basically created modern greek cuisine was a chef that studied and worked abroad in Austria in Italian and French cuisine...Italy got pasta and gelato from the Chinese on their travels to the silk road, greeks did as well.
half of these covered are Turkish originated which later got part in Greek cuisine in the Greek mainland after the turkish - greek population exchange. I respect Greeks that they try to protect their culture but putting the word "greek" in all those foods or drinks does not make them greek such as; greek baklava or greek coffee or dolmades.
