Ooooompah!

For those of you who, like me, enjoy authentic Greek food from time to time, I suggest you pay a visit to Greekfest when you are in the Phoenix / Scottsdale area.

 

I highly recommend the "combo" of mild kefalograviera cheese and loukaniko (house made lamb sausage) baked in olive oil and flamed with brandy at the table prior to serving - with house made or pita bread.  When flaming the dish, the waiter yells OOOMPAH!! - hence the name of the post!

 

That should get things going!  

 

For the entree, I have a few personal favorites, listed at random:

Gyros Taverna

Greekfest Ravioli

Pastitsio

Rack of Lamb

and many more...

 

If you still have room, the Baklava is amazing, as well as a couple of lesser known companions such as Galaktoboureko Chios (custard in phyllo pastry) and Creme Brulee Rizogalo (Creme Brulee Rice Pudding).

 

1940 E. Camelback Road, Phoenix AZ 85016

 

Located at 20th Street and Camelback - northwest corner.

HI Tony and Suzanne Marriott, Associate Brokers - I remember my trip to greece and the islands.  Everywhere we went we would order Baklava to see which one was the best!  It was very memorable.

Tony and Suzanne, I'll have to try this Greek place, I did not know about it. I cook some of those things at home, it's always good somebody else to cook it for me. :)

Wrong culture.  You're thinking of the German bands,  For the Greeks, it's Oopa

For me there is no desert like the galaktoboureko.  I had a Greek neighbor and his wife would make that often.  I could have been 50 pounds heavier had I not moved away.
