Cross-Rib Pot Roast

One of my family’s favourite Sunday meals centers around a Prime Rib Dinner. It’s not a cheap cut of meat (Prime Rib) but it’s fitting for a Sunday meal. From Medieval times, the wealthy used to get to eat the tender, more expensive cuts and the rest of us were left with scraps, offal and […]

Sunday Dinner in Yiayia’s Kitchen, June 12th

  Join me on Sunday, June 12th as I share some of my favourite food memories that I recall being made from my grandmother. Simple dishes using local and seasonal ingredients and made with love. I’ve come up with a menu I I like to call “Kouzina ’tis Yiayia’s (Grandmother’s Kitchen) and I am returning […]

Rotisserie Pork Ribs

One of my favourite dishes is pork ribs, generously painted with BBQ sauce and I enjoy it both winter and summer.

Our family had a quiet New Year’s Day but we still have a wonderful late lunch/early dinner. It was decided to have pork, a traditional meat during the Christmas holidays for Greeks. […]

An Evening of Greek Country Cooking at Urban Pantry

This past Sunday, I hosted the latest Greek Supper Club at Urban Pantry, just 45 minutes northeast of Toronto, in Uxbridge. The concept was Greek Country Cooking and the setting of a Uxbridge was ideal for a comforting Greek meal. Greek wine was selected and poured by Kolonaki Group and the Cretan olive oil was […]

The Prime Rib Steak

is at home. Sunday’s are best enjoyed at home with family and friends and it’s a fine to either stretch your culinary wings and cook-up a sumptuous Sunday dinner or shift-down in gears and prepare a home-cooked meal that’s easy, comforting and most satisfying. I chose the latter today  – I chose steak. Go ahead, […]

Roast Pork Belly and Potatoes
