Last Sunday was Mother’s Day and I was delighted to once again host this special lunch to honour these wonderful ladies in our lives.
A sold out event, lots of great food and Greek wines, poured by Apostolos Gerakinis with thanks.
Cretan olive oil, balsamic vinegar and Greek pita bread furnished by MT Foods with thanks.
