Daphne's Beef and Lamb Gyro Slices from Costco We love gyros for dinner, but I don't always love taking the time to make the gyro loaf. When we found that Costco carried these Daphne's Beef and Lamb Gyro slices, we had to try them. Daphne's If you remember, we went…
Steak Shawarma - Changing Up One of Our Favorites One of our favorite meals is Chicken Shawarma. This dish is full of flavor, the house smells amazing, it goes great with a fresh salad on the side. Matt was curious and wanted to know what the marinade we use would…
Moussaka - The Ultimate Comfort Food I've been wanting to see what Moussaka is all about since we began this journey back in 2017 and celebrated our appreciation of Greek Food that February. To me it looked like a Greek Shepherd's Pie, and with that you just couldn't go wrong.…
We originally made this meal combination back in February 2017 when we were first exploring the world via our kitchen, while we documented other Greek food experiences, for whatever reason, I never posted this one. Alas, the time has come where I'm finally sitting down to write about one of…

Burgers with a Greek Twist - Our First Attempt Inspired by the Greko Burger at Pangaea Restaurant and Wine Bar, we were ready for our second at home experiment. We decided we would try to re-create some Greek inspired burgers at home. The Burgers I used this recipe from the site…
Pangaea - Finally! We finally made it to Pangaea! We made sure to arrive early enough this time, so we didn't miss out. This was more of a sit-down place than Daphne’s California Greek, and as such the food and experience were much different (in a good way). We were immediately…
Daphne's California Greek - Think of Greek Quick Food. Greek month has officially begun! I referred to Daphne's California Greek as Greek Quick Food because I would never equate it to "Fast Food." Was it fast? yes. Was it food? Obviously. But I still won't call it fast food. Not…
