It was all Greek to me-the Smorgasbord

All the treats we gave our tummies:

1. Gyros:

Classic Greek fast food. Vegetarian version wasn’t really anything to scream about, but loved the texture of the pita and the tzatziki.

2. Classic Greek salad

Loved the fresh, local feta.

8. Mezedes 2:

Haloumi cheese, the softest, freshest goat cheese ever, Fava puree.

9. Gemista:

Most amazing stuffed tomatoes I have ever had.
