I'm a big fan of Greek food. I think it gets looked down on because it never developed a fine cuisine on the level of Turkish, Italian and French. You don't get a lot of technique driven dishes without a history of royal court cuisine. If your climate is good you end up with ingredient driven dishes, much like Italian farmhouse cooking.

If you can get good ingredients I actually prefer ingredient driven cuisine to technique driven. I'd rather have fish pulled out of the ocean an hour ago and grilled simply with lemon juice and herbs than an elaborate French scallop preparation. Any fucking day.

Where Greek food starts to fall apart is when you don't have the greatest ingredients to begin with, because it's such an ingredient driven cuisine.

Don't be an idiot. Turkish most definitely has a fast/street food culture, but you can't ignore the fine food side of the cuisine. The fancy dishes that date back to the Ottoman court were highly celebrated and influenced the rest of Europe and even Scandinavia. The cooking style influenced by this history is high end and fucking excellent.

Is a 'gyro' or chicken pita not 'real' greek food?

>>8197954
gyro is just based on the method of preparation, anything on a rotating spit could be termed a gyro, hence the guy above saying "nice kebab"

Try going to a high end Turkish restaurant or hanging out with rich Turks and going to one of their parties. I don't speak the language so I can't name the dishes. But it sure as fuck isn'r the same as their street food.

Seems healthy, where the hell is the meat though

Have experienced this.

Kek

>>8199626
I used to work in a restaurant where we had feta as one of our ingredients that could be added to our pizzas, salads, or hoagies. Prepping it was shit because you just have this 3lb block of disgusting feta and the stench is awful. Even wearing gloves it would get all over your hands and you would just smell like the human embodiment of toe cheese all day. I have no idea how people can stand to eat it in large quantities.

Started a new a Feta thread

>>8202620
feta and green onion omelette
getting hard just thinking about it

>>8202621
saw that recipe just a couple of days ago and i can't wait until it's the weekend to try it (too lazy to cook breakfast during the week)

i imagine it'd be great with leek too, but the leek would need to be pre-fried

>>8199626
Oh come on, I love feta for breakfast.
Just put it in some nice flatbread with a slice of tomato and salt and pepper maybe olive oil.

I dont eat sweet tho, like ever.

>>8202631
It's fine with rose petal jam, if you want to do it sweet.

>>8197954
>caviar crepes
