Greek Street Food Truck Wins $10,000 Prize

August 20, 2019 By The Food Adventures Crew Leave a Comment

The Winning Medal

You really could see this coming if you were paying attention.  Greek Street, is one of the hardest working Food Trucks in the Dayton area.  They were coming off a shout out from the Washington Post paper concerning their biscuits and lamb gravy.   For years they have been turning heads with unique spins on Greek food such as “street style gyros.”

This week they hit a huge goal and took home the grand prize at the Springfield Rotary Food Truck Competition.  The reward was 10,000 bucks.

Food Adventures was lucky enough to meet owner Chris Spritos in Fall 2015, as he was putting the finishing touches on his food truck.  A few months later, we got the green light to feature his Greek Street Food Truck in one of our articles.

From brewery stops, to Garlic Fest, to Food Truck rallies, and Americana Fest, we delight in seeing Greek Street out and about often.  Again, they are one of the hardest working Food Trucks in the business.

HOW DID THEY WIN $10,000 ???

The Sauteed Jumbo Shrimp Dish that won the competition !

There were 34 food trucks competing in this event.  Each food truck was asked to enter a dish for the judges to try and also had to serve that on the truck as well.

Greek Street’s entree was Sauteed Jumbo Shrimp.  It had a roasted corn and jalapeno salad.  It was accompanied with an avocado puree,  cumin-lime crema, feta cheese and micro-cilantro.

Five judges with culinary backgrounds judged the competition.  Greek Street’s entry was chosen as the best dish.

 

Chris Spiritos, owner of Greek Street Food Truck

ABOUT OWNER, CHRIS SPIRITOS:

— Chris grew up in a Greek family in Centerville. He went to Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Chicago to hone his craft.

— Chris also studied under the Chef for Oprah Winfrey, Chef Art Smith, while living in Chicago.  He was so well thought of, that Chris was flown to Oprah’s California home to help fix a dinner she hosted for the first graduating class of her school in Africa.

— Chris worked at L’Auberge and as a sous chef at Sung’s Korean Bistro in Cincinnati.  He also worked for the popular food truck,  Zombie Dogz.

Spanikopota is a spinach pie on the menu

HERE’S THE SKINNY ON GREEK STREET FOOD TRUCK:

— The Greek Street Food Truck has a core menu of:
   Gyros
   Greek Fries, 
   Spanakopita (a Greek spinach Pie)
   Hummus

— They use no compressed or processed meats.  The lamb gyros are made using braised legs of lamb.  Other gyro options include shrimp, chicken, vegetarian and on occasion, pork belly.

Shrimp Gyro Street Style – Big Ragu’s favorite item on the food truck…

 

 

 

 

— The menu will feature daily, revolving specials as well

Obviously the SAUTEED JUMBO SHRIMP is a “must eat” that will be featured on the truck, but what else are favorites?   Here are our choices ….

 

GREEK STREET FOOD TRUCK “MUST EATS:

Lamb Gyro

—SHRIMP GYRO, STREET STYLE: Stacked rotisserie chicken breasts slices, piled into a pita and topped with “street style toppings.”  Street style means:  tomato jam, pickled red onions, crumbled feta, fresh herbs, fries, and tzatziki sauce.  Quite honestly, one of the most flavorful and unique gyros we have had.  If you try one thing, this is item to grab.

 

Fresh Baklava

— LAMB GYRO, TRADITIONAL STYLE:  Shaved slices of braised lamb.  This is a throwback to the gyros of the old country with “traditional toppings.”  Traditional toppings are: tomato, tzatziki sauce, onions, smoked paprika and french fries.  This gyro is authentic.  It is like a steak sandwich, no processed meat here. Great food on the “go.”

 

— HOMEMADE BAKLAVA : The recipe is his mom’s, and it is a traditional favorite.  Sometimes they even offer baklava over ice cream.

 

NEWS !!! GREEK STREET LOOKING FOR A STOREFRONT !!

We have some exclusive scoop to end on. Greek Street is currently looking in the Centerville/Washington Township area for a brick and mortar location!  What an incredible sight a “Greek Street” restaurant would be for locals !

Thanks for reading this week’s Food Adventure feature article.   Visit us each and every week for EXCLUSIVE stories on Dayton’s best foodstuffs.  Join the 8,000 Dayton foodies that follow us on Facebook HERE

18 ~ “THE STREET STYLE CHICKEN GYRO” from GREEK STREET FOOD TRUCK:  
A one of a kind gyro with pickled onions and a one of a kind tzatziki sauce.  We cannot reiterate enough that you must get the chicken gyro and get it “street style.”  The “shrimp gyros street style” are a lighter take on a great thing. Opa!

There you have it, take a bow if you can eat all of the above items in a night.  We have a feeling  you might need some help, so bring your friends out and share some bites.  That’s

Greek Food Truck to Hit Dayton Streets

March 8, 2016 By The Food Adventures Crew Leave a Comment

“The Greek Street Food Truck” is about to explode onto the streets of the Miami Valley

Food Adventures has super secret info that we have been waiting months to release right here on Dayton Most Metro.  It concerns Dayton’s newest food truck, that will soon make a splash in the Miami Valley.

The scoop is so fresh that their website isn’t up yet, but you can find them on Facebook —>here.

THE GREEK STREET FOOD TRUCK is putting the final touches on its menu and final tweaks on operations, but looks ready to roll.

We are excited because this will be the first strictly “Greek Based truck” that we know of and brings further diversity to an already incredible selection of local food vehicles.

So whats the scoop on the new kid in town?  Who is behind the Greek Street Food Truck?

 

HERE’S THE SKINNY ON THE OWNER:

— CHEF CHRIS SPIRTOS, owner and operator of Greek Street Food Truck has an extensive cooking background.

Traditional Beef/Lamb Gyro from “Greek Street Food Truck”

— Chris went to Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Chicago to hone his craft.  The Centerville native, also  worked at L’Auberge and as a sous chef at Sung’s Korean Bistro in Cincinnati.

— Chris also studied under the Chef for Oprah Winfrey, Chef Art Smith, while living in Chicago.  He was so well thought of, that Chris was flown to Oprah’s California home to help fix a dinner she hosted for the first graduating class of her school in Africa.

— More recently, Chris has worked on the incredible food truck, Zombie Dogz

— Born into a Greek family (his grandparents were from Greece), Chris’ recipe for Baklava is his mom’s, and it is a traditional favorite.

 

What type of eats can you expect on the truck?  Food Adventures  has all the scoop right here.

 

 

Stacked Chicken on the Spindle cooker

Other GREEK STREET FOOD TRUCK info:

HERE’S THE SKINNY ON WHAT TO EXPECT:

— The meats are individually layered on a spindle and cooked.  There are no compressed or processed meats.  Just a Beef/Lamb mixture spindle, and a Chicken spindle.  Each gyro is sliced to order.

— The Greek Street Food Truck will have a core menu of:
   Gyros
   Greek Fries  or Regular Fries
   Spanakopita (a Greek spinach Pie)
   An assortment of dips, possibly including hummus
   Homemade Baklava

— The menu will feature daily, revolving specials as well

 

Now, without further delay, let’s give you our menu items from Greek Street Food Truck that are absolutely, “Must Eats”….

 

MUST EATS:

— CHICKEN GYRO, STREET STYLE: Stacked rotisserie chicken breasts slices, piled into a pita and topped with “street style toppings.”  Street style means:  tomato jam, pickled red onions, crumbled feta, fresh herbs, fries, and tzatziki sauce.  Quite honestly, one of the most flavorful and unique gyros we have had.  If you try one thing, this is item to grab.

— BEEF GYRO, TRADITIONAL STYLE:  Shaved slices of stacked lamb and beef rotisserie cooked meat.  This is a throwback to the gyros of the old country with “traditional toppings.”  Traditional toppings are: tomato, tzatziki sauce, onions, smoked paprika and french fries.  This gyro is authentic.  It is like a steak sandwich, no processed meat here.  Damn good food on the “go.”

 

Owner Chris Spirtos of “Greek Street Food Truck”

We are excited for the first Greek themed entry into Dayton’s food truck scene.  The Food Adventure crew of The Big Ragu, Chef House, and Hungry Jax, wish Chris good luck with his “Big Fat Greek Food Truck.”   We think Greek Street will be a huge hit… here’s to you .. OPA !
