The Kalofagas Greek Supper Club is back! Join me Sunday October 16th for a Taste of Chios.
This past summer I finally got to explore the alluring island of Chios. The island is located in the North Aegean and within site of the Turkish coast. Wealthy Greek ship owners and diaspora Chians have kept this island to themselves until recently.
I was in awe of its beautiful landscape, the diverse beaches ranging from sand to pebbles to black stones! The food was incredible with obvious influences from Asia Minor Greeks who resettled on Chios, the Genovese and of course accents of mastiha and mandarin in many dishes.
Join me on Sunday, October 16th for a Chios-inspired Greek Supper Club with wine pairings from United Stars. Greek olive oil and many other Greek specialty items will be provided byNisos Importing and table water from Theoni Canada.
We return to the St.Lawrence Market Kitchen, located above the market with a view of the market below and Toronto’s marvelous skyline large arched windows.
A TOTAL OF 50 SEATS WILL BE SOLD
