It depends.

Fucking greasy greeks

usually a burger, and sometimes half a pizza if im hungry

...

If it's on the menu, I'm having it.

Nasty Irish bar down the road sells saganaki made with cheddar, it's just not right.

easy choice

this... I would eat it until I died.

Easily this. It works so well

fucking 100%

Every single time I go to a restaurant I order this. I just... I just can't get sick of it.

Saganaki cheese of some sort, which one? Stuff is like crack.

My fuggin brotha.

Fried pickles or zucchini are a close second to me.

Amateur. Pop a couple of these bad boys with a beer and you're set!

Foie gras seared

There's a chain around here that serves deep fried jalapeno rings and calls them "bottle caps". Don't know if that's common but they're god damn amazing. Worth the heartburn afterwards.

fried calamari
fried ravioli

Nice. You're almost tempting me to let my girlfriend drag me to Olive Garden she fucking loves that garbage.
>Just fried calamari and your biggest glass of the cheapest beer you have on draft please

>Fried calamari
>Prawn cocktail
>Beef carpaccio
>Chicken livers
The calamari with a good dipping sauce is king, however.

That looks uncooked. Doesn't cooked salmon turn white?

It is uncooked, it has just been smoked.

can't go wrong with some 'zarella sticks

Smoking just imparts a smoked flavor but doesn't cook it?

Nachos, with a variety of condiments and toppings.

These are terrific but I get sick of them pretty quickly

You can do them simultaneously on a grill/bbq smoker or separately, my friend.

>As opposed to steamed calamari? Excellent choice, sir.

Yeah, that's cold smoked salmon, so it's basically raw with a smoked flavour. It's great.

>raw with a smoked flavour

You're forgetting an important point. True, it's not cooked with heat, but it is fully cured with a heavy salt rub, and sometimes a sprinkling of aquavit or other alcohol before smoking.

Oh yeah, good point.

I like Saganaki because it sounds Japanese, but is actually Greek. Also, they set it on fire in front of you.

It's also an anagram for Nagasaki. Coincidence?

Salt and pepper squid is clearly the superior entrée.

What

What the fcuk is a whores do 'oover

Its not even truly Greek, this was invented in Chicago's Greektown neighborhood. Call it an American invention.

Opa!
