Well, Iskender Kebap is a meat dish (yummy!) made with yogurt and pide, and was invented by a Turkish cook named Iskender a few decades back. The name Iskender comes from the same root as Alexander, the great Macedonian hero. I don't know why, but I heard that Greeks are pissed that we have a dish that seems to have been named after their hero... which isnot correct of course. Can you think of any reason why? Do you think they will claim ownership of the dish, just like they claim ownership on the name Macedonia?
