It's OK for a vegetable moussaka to have anchovy in it. It's not OK for a vegetarian moussaka to have anchovy in it.

And it should have eggplant, not potatoes no matter how well cooked.

My moussaka is divine

Oh and maybe a 'greeek salad' shouldn't be a bowl of cucumber and tomatoes qith two olives and an inch square cube of some sort of cheese.

The thing is, I find that the term "vegetarian" means different things to different people. I guess all you can do is carefully check the ingredients though.

Reminds me of that scene in My Big Fat Greek Wedding where the groom tells that mad aunty he's a vegetarian and she says "it's OK, I make lamb"

Was it a greek restaurant you ate in?

Yes haha

As a vegetarian I'd say no, of course it shouldn't have anchovies in it. Apart from anything else, the addition of anchovies in moussaka of all bloody things, sounds vile, whether you're a vegetarian or not.

Yuk!
