Today's post is not a recipe but instead a celebration of a lovely local Greek café, Orion, which we like to drop into for a quick bite occasionally in Hyde Park, Leeds. If ever you are ever passing through Leeds, this is a must-visit! Here they serve a variety of authentic Greek dishes and the owner is very friendly and welcoming. We have often recreated these at home - they are simple to make and you can add your own twist - but we wanted to spread the word about this rustic and charming café. We simply had to pay a last visit before we left Leeds and so two of our favourites for a light bite, eaten for lunch today, are shown below.
Firstly, the falafel gyros - delicious falafel served in a pitta bread with homemade houmous and fresh salad. Simple and delightful.
Another favourite is the chicken souvlaki gyros which comes laden with chicken, onions, tomatoes, tzatziki and oregano-seasoned hand cut chips. One of life's little pleasures.
We hope that one day you might drop in and experience the food for yourselves!
