Calgary’s Hidden Greek Gem | A Taste of the Mediterranean
🏠 The Greek Corner A family-run oasiswhere Yani (the charismatic host) and his wife (the master chef) bring 45 years of culinary passion from New York to Bermuda—now to Calgary. Expect warm hospitality and homestyle flavors that feel like a hug from a Greek yiayia (grandma). 🍽️ Must-Order Feast ✅ Mixed Platter (Dinner Menu) "For 2" but easily feeds 3!Highlights: Moussaka: Layers of potato, spiced beef, eggplant, zucchini, and a thick, cheesy béchamel crust (the star!). Grilled Meats: Tender chicken & beef over fragrant rice—simple but perfect. Calamari: Crispy, lemon-drizzled, or dipped in tzatziki (garlicky yogurt sauce). Spanakopita Triangles: Flaky phyllo stuffed with feta-spinach bliss. ✅ Kataifi Dessert Shredded pastry soaked in syrup + custard + whipped cream + nuts. Sweet alert!(Yani gifted us baklava too—his "less sweet" version is still a sugar rush.) 🎉 Why It’s Special 👵 Homemade Love: Every dish tastes like it’s made for family. 🌿 Fresh & Balanced: No oversalting—adjust flavors yourself. 🍷 Storytime: Yani shares tales of his globetrotting kitchen adventures. Next Target: Their lamb shank (slow-cooked to fork-tender glory?). 📍 Details 📌 Location: Ask for the dinner menu—lunch is limited! 💰 Price: Platter ~$50, generous for sharing ⏰ Vibe: Cozy, conversational, no rush #CalgaryEats #GreekFood #FamilyOwned #HiddenGemYYC #ComfortFood #MediterraneanVibes #FoodWithAStory
