Mister Gain 1,764 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Do love a bit of Greek food myself. Had a Greek night out the back garden a few years back, about a dozen people, bought a lamb and made Kleftiko out of lamb shoulder, moussaka, dolmades using some leaves off my grapevine, beef stefado and lamb shish kebabs, some dips, olives, greek salad, flatbread etc even finished with greek coffee and ouzo... absolutely beautiful. I reckon you have to eat the 'proper' food (as opposed to tourist grub) of a country whichever you visit.. don't think I could go with some of that Vietnamese food though.. fetal duck eggs, yuk.

forest of dean redneck 11,602 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Yeah I think you would have to be careful when ordering asian food, but I was watching tv once and some of the street food looked mouthwatering. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
