Recape, A Taste of Corfu

HIP_9590What a night! A sold out crowd of 55 persons that included visitors from Texas, a 4-time Grey Cup champ and Hall of Famer, some regular attendees plus some new faces that helped to make this a fun and memorable evening.

It was also a delicious evening with all the dishes “kissed”  using Greek extra-virgin olive oil from Nisos Importing.KLF_7042

The dishes were paired with a selection of wines from Kolonaki Group and sommelier Zissis Parras walked us through the origins of the wines and explained the pairings.KLF_7031

Seats are now on sale for my next Greek Supper Club, taking place on Monday, Feb.22nd at Penelope’s on King West. It’s an all fish and seafood menu and one I’ve dubbed “Anemos”, the Greek word for wind.
