About Greek food…
Greek food is characterized by fresh and simple ingredients that are prepared in a way that accentuates their natural flavors. Greek cuisine is based on the use of olive oil, fresh herbs, vegetables, and cheeses, as well as seafood and meats such as lamb and chicken. Food is an essential part of Greek hospitality and socializing. People love to share their food with others, and meals are often seen as a time for family and friends to come together and enjoy each other's company.
Popular dishes include souvlaki, moussaka, dolmades, spanakopita, and tzatziki, to name a few. Greek cuisine also has a strong tradition of meze, or small plates, that are perfect for sharing and nibbling. Whether you're a fan of savory or sweet flavors, Greek cuisine has something to offer, from feta cheese and olives to honey-soaked baklava.
You will cherish it!

Entertain at your home
Greek culture is known for its love of food and people and many social activities revolve around sharing meals. Friends and family gather together regularly in Greece to share a meal, often with multiple courses accompanied by select wines; many Greek celebrations, such as weddings, baptisms, and Easter, involve large feasts with family and friends which are elaborate affairs celebrated at home with multiple dishes and lots of dancing and music.
