Greek yoghurt turns up all over our menu at Nonòs Judd Street, our Greek Mediterranean kitchen and bar at 112 Judd Street, London WC1H 9NT, five minutes' walk from King's Cross St Pancras. It's at breakfast, on the dessert list and in our tzatziki. Here's what makes it different from ordinary yoghurt, and the best ways to eat it with us.
Strained, thick and creamy
Greek yoghurt is strained yoghurt: yoghurt that has had most of its whey drained away. That makes it thicker and creamier while keeping its tangy taste. Because so much liquid is removed, it takes more milk to make, and some of the lactose goes with the whey, so it's lower in sugar than unstrained yoghurt.
In Greece it's called strangistó giaoúrti, and it's traditionally made from sheep's milk. Greek cooks use it mostly in two ways: as the base for tzatziki, and as a dessert topped with honey, sour cherry syrup or spoon sweets. It only became well known in the UK in the 1980s, when the Greek company Fage began importing it. Wikipedia's strained yoghurt page has more.
At breakfast
Our breakfast menu, served from 08:30 to 12:00 seven days a week, has Greek Yoghurt (V, GF): low-fat yoghurt with mixed nuts, honey and baby fruits. It's a lighter start than the Nonòs Full English, and it goes well with a Freddo Espresso or a fresh orange juice. Our post on breakfast at Nonòs covers the rest of the menu.

As dessert
On the à la carte menu, the dessert list includes Greek Yoghurt (V, GF) served with honey and mixed nuts: the classic Greek way to finish a meal. It's the only dessert on our menu marked gluten-free. If you want something richer, there's baklava or a warm chocolate brownie; see our post on Greek desserts at Nonòs.
As tzatziki
Our Tzatziki (V, GF) is Greek yoghurt with cucumber, garlic and olive oil. You can order it as a mezze dish on its own, and it also comes:
- in Nonòs' Meze for two, with hummus, tyrokafteri, Greek salad, olives and pitta;
- with the Mixed Grill Feast, alongside pitta, Greek salad and fries;
- in the Nonòs Lamb Burger, with lettuce, tomatoes and grilled halloumi.
Fern's table ordered widely: We had the seafood pasta and the beef burger, calamari and a side of tzatziki
