Taste of Greece Wine & Food Pairing ~ June 2016

This month we did things a little different... we joined Nina at her church St. Catherine's to participate in the Greek Festival - Wine & Food Pairing.

Nina and her hubby George hosted the event which offered yummy Greek food and plenty of Greek wines!

We were served different tasting courses of savory Greek delights accompanied with a complimentary wine.  Our hosts described the history of the food as well as the region and characteristics of the wine.

Thank you Nina & George and team for the effort in making the night both educational and delicious!

Fun night!  Thank you to Nina & George for hosting the event and to Tom (Jen's husband) for joining Betty, Angi, Denise, Jen and myself for  a trip through the tastings of Greece... expanding our knowledge and delighting our pallets!  Always a fun night with my Cooking Club friends.
