    Who gets the one piece of baklava?

  • Duncan

    Never mind the bak­lava, you can get that any­where. The tiro­pita sounds inter­est­ing and Google only knows 2 web pages refer­ring to spino­p­itas: one of them is this page and the oth­er one is in Greek.

    The bak­lava was shared fairly (not to Callum’s lik­ing). Tiropita should maybe be tirip­ita (it’s a kind of cheese pie), and spino­p­ita is prob­ably spinoko­pita and is spin­ach and cheese in puff pastry. Apols for the dodgy spelling: our blood sug­ar is low, des­pite the baklava.
    Report on our vis­it to Cafe Gerbeau in Budapest to come soon, with pho­tos of the gateaux.
