You know them as "tapas" or "small
plates" but the Greeks
know them as "mezethes"
("meze" is the singular).
We will be featuring a number small portions
of Greek specialties, all priced so you can
order several and sample them. They will
range from $3 to $8, and we will include
different off-menu items: seafood, meats,
vegetables, salads, and dips.
We are experimenting with the idea of
offering the "mezethes" dinners on a regular
basis, perhaps once a month. We will offer
a mix of mainstream Greek foods, as well as
some off-beat (yet tasty!) fare.
