In fact, yes ... much of what we know in the USA as "greek food" was created within the Greek community in New York. Gyros, for example, were invented by Greeks in NYC (Deb Duchon mentions this in the Good Eats episode "My Big Fat Greek Sandwich").
Disclaimer: I am not Greek, but I sure do love Greek food.

Yes, Alton needs to make kebabs in a crowded, unsanitary street surrounded by extremist militants, twelve year old prostitutes and crowds of beggars. THAT'S how cooking is meant to be done.

Actually I suspect that Mr. B gives the "turks" too much credit. The only thing Arabs ever invented is terrorism. Kebabs were actually invented by the Greeks.
The Turkish people are not Arab, they are Turkish, and as somebody who has actually been to Turkey all the girls in short skirts and the fact that people kept on feeding me liquor speaks to the fact that it is not a hot bed of Islamic extremism.
@lorezapocalypse : Turkey is a great country. I'm part Turkish, atleast if you climb high enough in my family tree, and just about everything about Turkish culture, food, architecture, history, women, mustaches, everything, is amazing.
@honeybadger81 You put moustaches after women on your list so at least you've got your priorities straight. ;) Then again, you place women after food so now I wonder... o.O
@QueenBoadicea Well, I'm very happily married, and my wife isn't Turkish (not that I'm complaining!), so I have to be conscious about those priorities :) If, on the other hand, you want to talk about life itself, my wonderful wife is definitely the best and most important part of mine.
@artcancro That's absolute bullshit. The Islamic Caliphates of the middle ages invented Algebra, Trigonometry, Coffee (I'm talking about the drink itself of course), Distilled Alcohol (the word alcohol comes from the Arabic "al-ku-hul"), Inoculation, Tooth Paste, Even the first Medical Peer Review.
Go back to history class, you IGNORANT FUCK.
Oh, and BTW, i'm not an arab or a muslim at all. I'm a white guy.
@illman8876 You are 100% incorrect. The Islamic Caliphates invented a false god and a false prophet who supposedly encourage their followers to kill everyone else. All of the other things you mentioned were invented by the Greeks.
@artcancro Everything i said they invented is well documented as being invented by the Muslims. How could the greeks invent any of the things i stated when, for one, the greeks never had coffee beans, and second, they did not have the mathematical knowledge to even comprehend things like algebra, or trigonometry.
Distilled Alcohol and Inoculation were WAYYYY out of their technological Era.
YOU ARE AN IGNORANT PIECE OF SHIT. GO AHEAD, TRY AND PROVE ME WRONG.
Check out the algebra time line on wikipedia. May be wikipedia, but the references are well documented. And the fact that you have to add an insult at the end of all your comments makes you even less of a valid source. Try being a little more mature when educating someone.
@PeachPoptart I usually am...but when dealing with ignorant idiots like artcancro i just call em like I see em. There's no reason to be nice to someone like that.

At about 3:30, Alton looks one hat and cigar short of looking a bit like Hunter S. Thompson (with hair).

@QueenBoadicea You'd think so, but some Turks even hold mustache competitions, so atleast they think mustaches are important :)
