Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne, where I live, has a very large Greek population. Actually Greek community of Melbourne is the largest Greek-speaking population outside of Greece and Cyprus. And Greek Food is hugely popular here. This is my Greek Salad that I often make. As I always add salty Fetta and Olives, I season the salad very lightly. This salad is perfect for Aussie BBQ.
