The Greek Taverna will be well stocked with imported Greek Beer, Ouzo, and Red, White, and Retsina wines. Learn to dance Greek and then join the fun with live music on the main courtyard stage by Mythos, a nationally known Greek Band from the West Coast. Each day includes authentic Greek dances performed by the Nisiotes Dance Group, a presentation on Orthodoxy by Father Alexander Leong, and Cooking demos so you can learn to prepare your favorite Greek Dishes. Other highlights include a Greek market/bazaar shopping experience with imported Deli food – Cretan olive oil, olives, herbs, grape leaves, cheeses, jams, pasta and more; Aprons, Greek captain hats, shirts, jewelry, incense and icons; and a T-shirt booth with original 2015 designs.
