How can you not like fresh vegetables,fish and olive oil?

Gets a little monotonous after a while.
Plus, the Med is a cesspool. I personally would not care to eat fish
from it.

Careful there... in all Med cultures, insinuating that person eats
goat is a deadly insult.
Of course, the climate and land is such that goats are about the only
livestock that can thrive there, so pretty much everybody is a goat-
eater. Hope it's safe to say that from this distance!




Or did you go to a tourist town where they cater .. badly, to tourists
with replicas of food that the tourist would eat at home?
Soggy fish and chips and pizza with 1" thick base?


The best pizza I've ever had was in northern Greece.
Also, the best C&W band I've ever heard was in a poinky bar outside
Athens (Lifadah).


It was a sailing holiday. * We ate in small local restaurants
near the harbours.

The food in Turkey is a bit better, and has the advantage
that the people who work in restaurants know how to smile.


Did you go to the compound?
