Taverna Lunch and Dinner - Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church

Why Taverna style? Because breaking bread with family and friends is one of the cornerstones of Greek culture.

​

In ancient Greece, food was considered a sacred offering to the gods, and the preparation and consumption of food was believed to strengthen the connection between mortals and the divine. Today, eating is a social event for Greeks, and meals are a way to share food, socialize and enjoy each other’s company. Furthermore, food is a physical expression of love and hospitality and Greek take great pride in their cooking and the ritual of meals.

​

The Greek historian Plutarch famously said, “We do not sit at the table to eat… but to eat together.”

​

We look forward to breaking bread with you on October 11th and 12th. Kali Orexi!
