Anything with tzatziki on the side, particularly keftes and gyros. I
also like spanakopita, tyropita, dolma (I still need to get the recipe
from the lady who lives across the street from my mom!),skordalia,
saganaki, moussaka, avgolemono, taramosalata.... Hell, I *love* Greek
food! One of my favorite things about living in metro Detroit is the
ubiquitous "Greek coney", where you get a coney dog with baklava for
dessert (among other Greek specialties and diner foods).

a happy woman!)
