Kali orexi - Enjoy your meal

Grab a fork and have a seat at the table! Friends and loved ones are getting together for an evening of
laughter, drinks, and most of all, plate after plate of delectable Greek food. Welcome to the epitome of
Greek-style entertaining - the Greek meze table.

Translated literally, the word meze (meh-ZEH) means a taste or a bite. It is used to describe small plates of
savoury snacks that are served as a compliment to drinks. There are many different types of mezethes
(meh-ZEH-thes), and the menu will vary according to locale.

The meze table is a traditional gathering place - warm, inviting, and always casual. It is an atmosphere where
the plates are communal, the conversation is spirited, and the pace is leisurely. This style of entertaining
encourages people to come and join the party. Tables are pushed together to accommodate newcomers,
and more plates and drinks are ordered.
