Santorini is garbage! the quality has gone down hill from opening day!
the service is terrible also.. the waiters spend more time on their cellphones sending text messages than caring for customers.. the food is oiling and not well presented! the products are cheap and not homemade!

but for some strange reason the place is busy! guess koreans don't know what is real good greek food..
I didnt try the mousaka so I can't comment how good that was..
but avoid the calamari and the greek salad!
oh and the dip platter was not that good and the bread they serve is shocking! it aint peta bread..

I'm going to be in Itaewon for lunc on the weekend and fancy some Middle Eastern or Greek food. Does anyone know of any good ones. Also, I want to have a look around some foreign supermarkets for some things, lamb and different stirfy sauces and anything else interesting they may have. Any info greatly appreciated.

There's a foreign supermarket next door to What The Book - http://www.whatthebook.com/


I love that place, although it seems like the products get roated a lot. I bought cheddar and sour cream chips there and went back 3 weeks later and they were gone, but I did find Nutella so all was good.

PS-if anyone knows of a place in Daegu selling Nutella, please let me know!
Foreign Food Mart?

The last time, and WILL be the last time we go, cos we aren't going back again, we had mousakka and greek salad.. and I can't remember what my friend had, but everything was disappointing.

I mean.. even my old school made better mousakka than the utter CRAP they gave us there!

Well I did take the advice on Sanotorini lol, thanks for that. As it turns out we decided to have Thai. A small place at the end of the same street called "My Thai China", slightly elevated and accessed by walking up a steep little driveway. It had very nice atmosphere and a reasonable, although not extensive, menu. The food was great though and I would say it's definatly worth a visit.

We also went to the foreign supermarket (near 'what the book'), which was also definatly worth the visit.

Thanks for the responses, cheers.
