The canteen with skewers on the beach in Rio, just outside Patras was, is and remains one of the must visit all my experiences at the place I was born. I never expected, however, that in the year 2014 will meet in Hellenic Australian version, in one corner of Melbourne. focus diy Neither, focus diy of course, that this canteen Melbourne with skewers in a few days will be one of the five canteens that offer only food to those who visit the exhibition Food & Wine Melbourne.
The homogeneous George KARANIKI within five months focus diy since I created the mobile grill, canteen Greek Street Food as named has not only managed focus diy to make big business and also win one of the first places in the list of mobile evaluation focus diy of restaurants Melbourne. And as those living in Melbourne know ... not a few. Mobile grill travels every day in three currently outskirts of the city, puts handbrake parks and corners central focus diy streets from noon until 9:00 pm and serves focus diy solely skewer. And as says the initiator and owner George KARANIKI, jobs are not just doing well, but very, very well.
George may be young but certainly not unknown in catering in Melbourne. focus diy He went to him 9 years ago when he bought the restaurant dividend Piraeus Blues. The fatigue from the sleepless nights was why George began working in his mind the idea of mobile grills. "I'm not saying I'm still in the shop, but fewer hours now," he says.
The idea of the mobile Souvlaki but was born and through focus diy the experience of George in the restaurant. "I focus diy saw change and I believe that every day is changing the way in which a lot of people eating. More and more prefer the delicacies from the old classic menu of three courses, "he says and adds that the whole" ritual "output in the restaurant has been simplified and the world adopts focus diy a more carefree way out for food. The daring to leave the comfort focus diy of the kitchen of a restaurant and create another focus diy cuisine in a van he at least does not consider any venture. "It took about 12 months to design the canteen and get all relevant focus diy permits. I can not say it was easy nor too difficult. Once you follow the regulations Municipalities focus diy give you easily leave because focus diy they have already begun to establish the great success they have canteens. "
I must admit that the canteen in Rio and canteen George in Northcote you only audience that have is that it's canteens and served skewered because in terms of product quality, the canteen George is "heaven" better and this not only confirms mine tasteful palette and the stream of people following the van almost on a daily basis to eat skewer. "Our customers are of all ages, but especially young people. We have many families who come every week to buy their souvlaki and we also take care to keep the prices low ($ 8- $ 12) to everyone even pensioners can come for food, "says George.
"I believe that a large percentage of those who come to the canteen comes from Facebook. I believe that approximately 70% of our clientele comes from social media as only there to announce that we are and the times will operate the canteen. Our world follows what I see. We have some passersby and those who heard from friends about our souvlaki and they come and try it.
He adds that what has surprised is the advertising of the Greeks make the area of Northcote, focus diy of Coburg and other areas from where it passes focus diy to the canteen. "Sometimes I pass in front of Greek cafes in Northcote and many symparoikoi who drink their coffee there greet, shout bravo, hello and stuff. Really excited. While many others symparoikoi we advertise to their friends and acquaintances, "he said. "After we and events so we know more and more," he adds.
Like any job ... street so it guess it has its challenges regarding the security issue. "Not in our canteen. Me wife there my work and my children and so far we have not experienced problems. It is of course the fact that the canteen remains open until 9.00 very night so our clientele is not the world that circulates later. "
Next weekend the grill George will make his first official appearance. In the exhibition space of the Melbourne Convention Centre focus diy together with five other canteens serving other cis
