Greek Sausage
This sausage is on my death row food list without a shadow of a doubt. I first tried it in Kalonias when I was in primary school and I was always so upset you couldn't get it in the UK really. A few places do it now, but not like this.
Grilled Chicken
The chicken was undoubtedly the highlight. I really wish I knew what spice rub they put on it because I will be rubbing that stuff into my gums every single day. It is probably some of the best chicken I've ever had. I can't get over that taste.
