Greek Food Tour

Strolling through the lively streets of Marrickville, the tantalising aromas of freshly grilled souvlaki, creamy tzatziki, and savoury moussaka fill the air, beckoning food enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the flavours of Greece.

Whether you seek the comfort of hearty classics like spanakopita, a spinach and feta-filled pastry, or the refreshing delight of a Greek salad, bursting with ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, olives, and creamy feta cheese, Marrickville has it all. One cannot miss the iconic gyro, a savory combination of seasoned meat, usually lamb or chicken, roasted on a vertical spit and served with warm pita bread, fresh vegetables, and a dollop of creamy tzatziki sauce. The traditional Greek hospitality is also evident in the mezze culture, where friends and family come together to share an assortment of small plates, ranging from flavourful dips like hummus and taramasalata to crispy calamari and saganaki, a delectable saganaki, fried cheese.
