Greek Salad

When food leaves the country, it always changes to adapt the new culture. It is quite important to have a real Greek Salad while in Greece. I ordered it in a local restaurant in Athens, so I suppose they use all standard ingredients. It is surely different than the ones I had in Toronto. The cheese is super fresh. The green pepper is not spicy but very salty. I made a mistake of eating the whole green pepper in one bite. I should have cut it into pieces.

American-style "Greek" salad is quite different:
