Μaria, Joumana, WISH YOU COULD BE HERE! I’ll post photos and details as soon as possible! 🙂
How exciting! I wish I could be there to sample; waiting to read about it on your site!
I too am eager to hear more about the items on this menu! I look forward to reading the details.
Thank you Magda! Later I’ll share photos and a recipe. 🙂
I’m jealous Mariana! I wish I could be in Greece for this. I love the menu, it’s so exciting. I would like to taste everything, especially the soft bread from Cappadocia, since my great grand mother was born and raised there. (Perhaps you could share the recipe later?) 🙂
Have great time presenting and cooking!
Magda
