Spirou Merkouri 22a - The concept is designed to transport you through various Greek locales as we synchronize the tunes of our ensemble with tastes that epitomize each area.
A collaboration of the finest traditional music performers from the city have teamed up with the culinary expertise of Chef Panagiotis Vasilatos, renowned for his skill in fusing timeless classics with contemporary styles. Together, they’ve crafted the inaugural Greek music & gastronomy pairing event, featuring food and beverages.
The evening promises a feast for the senses with food, drink, song, and the opportunity for dance to the accompaniment of drums, lutes, violins, and flutes. A culinary journey through appetizers, salads, entrees, and desserts, complemented by spirits and liqueurs, will transport you to the Ionian Islands, the Peloponnese, Crete, the Cyclades, Thrace, Epirus, and finally to the Northern Aegean and Asia Minor.
However, don’t be mistaken. This isn’t a performance. It’s an open invitation to be a part of our gathering. The essence of the experience is co-creation; it cannot be packaged and delivered. Leave behind the notion of historical lectures, staged acts, and attire. It’s not about a single tune or a particular plate; it’s about the synergy of it all. Immerse yourself in the beat, then savor the scents and flavors of a Greece that’s uniquely yours.
