First time trying Spanakopita — completely converted
I had never tried Spanakopita before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The rich with olive oil taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. dried oregano is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before.
The a meze sharing table setting added something to the experience — this kind of food makes sense in that environment. the sharing table or mezethes is central to Greek social eating. My server recommended ouzo alongside and it was exactly right. I've been telling everyone to try Spanakopita. Outstanding first encounter.
