There is a little Greek joint around the corner from our apartment, and with Beka (my best friend) moving in to our complex here in a couple of weeks to be my new neighbor, I can’t wait to have a reason to go back to this little Greek joint to order one of everything. The two guys running it, I think, have started to recognize Ben and I and probably hope we will order something other than our new “usual” – me, the Shwarma platter with beef and lamb, and Ben with Gyro platter.

And the best part, is these guys always find something else to toss into our order for us to try. Whether it’s the greek fries (which I am determined to make for you guys sometime), the lentil soup which blows us away, and grapes leaves that you want to dunk in tsatziki ’til the cows come home!.

It’s been about three weeks, THREE WEEKS ahhh, since we’ve been to our Greek Pita place, but these Greek Hot Dogs totally hit the spot and will get me through until Ben and I get our fix again. Which won’t be long.

Ingredients for Greek Hot Dog

One must have for these dogs is Tzatziki sauce – which no spell check likes, btw – and instead of scouring my grocery store, I made Julie from Table for Two’s Tzatziki Sauce and it was incredible! No joke, I started eating it with a spoon. There is no shame in this game, it’s that good. So make sure you grab her recipe and use it on these dogs! It’s a must do.
