00:00I went to Greece last week, and here are my favorite foods I tried.
00:04Starting off with the classic Greek yogurt.
00:06In Greece, Greek yogurt is way thicker, tangier, and is traditionally served with honey and
00:12chopped walnuts.
00:13Savory phyllo pies like tiropita or spanakopita are flaky, cheesy, rich, and oh so satisfying.
00:21If you're a pasta lover like me, then you have to try pastitsio.
00:25Pastitsio is a delicious cube of pasta with tomatoey spiced ground beef and bechamel.
00:30It's so soft, flavorful, and comforting.
00:33After my fun days of swimming at the beach, fresh seafood in Greece is a must try.
00:38Grilled shell on shrimp, sardines, cuttlefish, and octopus are perfectly tender and taste
00:45as fresh as the ocean.
00:46Now this was my all-time favorite dish because moussaka is Greek love on a plate.
00:52Grilled lamb cooked with warm spices, tomato, onions, and eggplant topped with a creamy
00:57bechamel is divine.
00:59And that's it.
01:00Tell me in the comments how you would rank these dishes.
