One spectacular variety of dishes to try is found in Greek culture. Greek words are known to be quite tasty and unique in composition. Lucky for you, here in Boston, we have restaurants that prepare some of the most excellent Greek dishes.

Baked Moussaka

This is one of the most famous Greek dishes. This delicious masterpiece typically has three layers: minced meat, sweet potatoes, and aubergine. A special cream sauce is used to top it off and then baked until a golden brown color is obtained. Moussaka can be made for vegetarians, too, where the minced meat is removed and replaced with a non-meat-based option.

Fasolatha

Another very popular delicacy from Greece is the Fasolatha. Translated to English, it means White Bean Soup. It is prepared with beans, mashed fresh tomatoes, carrots, celery, garlic, and onions. Other vegetables can also be added based on the discretion of the customer. Parsley leaves are typically used at the end to flavor the soup.

Loukoumades

This trendy Greek food is popular amongst children and older people. Loukoumades are small fried balls that have a doughnut-like appearance. The balls are also dipped in honey, and various toppings such as cinnamon, sprinkles, and crushed cashew nuts are also used. It is common in our restaurants for people to come and order several packs for friends and family members.

Keftethes

These are Greek-breaded meatballs. They are usually made with lamb meat and sliced potatoes and served alongside a creamy yogurt sauce. When prepared right, they are crispy and delicious and can be served as side dishes for salads and rice.

Spanakopita

Greeks are known for their love for pie, so it should be no surprise that a pie-based dish is on our list. This dish can be made in a variety of ways and with a variety of ingredients. A phyllo pastry layered with cheese, spinach, and flavored dill is the most common.
