Paris sucks

Anyone who's been to Paris will probably agree, especially Parisians

Greek salad is a fruit salad

Tbh a proper one is just a deconstructed sandwich

To be fair, I love a Greek salad, and make myself one once a week when none else is looking.

But...a sandwich? How so?

A quick Google has reminded me I'm specifically thinking of a Cretan greek salad: https://hungryhappens.net/dakos-salata-cretan-salad/

OK, yeah, I'm doing northern mainland Greek salad: tomatoes, cukes, cheese, olives. And onions.

Legitimately recommend giving the Cretan version a go, it's the perfection of the dish IMO

Though sadly unless you're actually having it somewhere in the Mediterranean, the tomatoes just don't hit the same

Oh for sure. It looks like a variation on the Tuscan panzanella salad. I think I might like the Creatan version better.

And yeah, garden full of tomatoes right now, and a gallon of fancy olive oil. I'm good to go.
