In the late summer and early fall the villages in Greece are filled with celebration. The air is filled with the sound of music and the smell of delicious food.
On Saturday night visit our "Kafeneion" (cafe) and try our Greek Sampler Plate, which offers a delicious assortment of village appetizers, Greek wine and Great Dane Microbrew.
On Sunday is a full festival day serving Greek-style dinners of roast lamb or Athenian baked chicken with rice, Greek salad, bread, feta cheese and olives, gyros and a sampler vegetarian plate of spanakopeta, rice, bread, Greek salad and olives.
After you finish dinner, it is time for dessert. Come downstairs to the church hall and take home some homemade Greek pastries.
We also invite you to tour our church sanctuary. Guided tours of the beautiful iconography done by renowned local artist, David Giffey, will be given on the hour. The dance troupes "Kyklos" and "Niata" will be performing traditional Greek folk dances.
