Ola Kala Greek restaurant deli and takeaway on Morrison Street Whether you're picking up a bite on the go or enjoying an informal meal, Ola Kala offers fresh Greek fast food. Co-owner Maria Asvestopoulou said opening the deli and grill was an impulse decision by her husband. "There is lots of Greek food in Edinburgh," Maria said. My husband and his best friends just decided to go for it and open up their own Greek deli. It sells more typical Greek food. The target for us was to bring typical Greek fast food here. It's different to fast food as you know it, because everything is made fresh to order. From homemade fries with a cheese dip to gyro wraps and souvlaki - the deli also has a sweeter side. As Maria's husband is also a pastry chef, the dessert menu is already proving a hit and includes galaktoboureko, a custard pastry, and baklava, a sweet pastry filled with nuts and syrup. Maria said they hoped the foodie offerings would introduce people to flavours of the country that they may not have tasted before, as well as bringing back memories for those who have travelled to Greece. "The main thing for us was that it would not only be Greeks who would know what they would find from the food, we aim to attract other people," Maria said. Most people who come in haven't tried most of the items on the menu, we are from northern Greece so it is slightly different. If people have been to Greece and tried the dishes before, I can tell by the look on their face when they order the dish. You can see it in their eyes that they know everything about it. People mostly recognise the sandwiches and wraps, these are typical dishes that the standard tourist would go and try in Greece and they love and recognise it here. Receiving more than 1000 likes on Facebook in four weeks, people are already rating it highly. With one customer saying "the taste gets you back to sunny Greece no matter how cold it is outside." Maria said the couple never expected to receive such a positive response within a short time and are already looking at expanding in 2015. "The response has been amazing, we've had lots of reviews from non-Greek people and that has amazed me," she said. We offer a takeaway option at the moment, but a lot of people were already asking about delivery and we have decided to launch that in the new year.
