ReMARKable Palate #67: Hellenic Food and Wine
Opa! I was recently invited to a Hellenic Food and Wine event at the Battery Gardens Restaurant in Battery Park, in New York City. It overlooks the Statue of Liberty and New York Harbor, and was a fitting setting for celebrating the food and wines of the Grecian isles. With wine merchants and restaurateurs from around New York City, they represented producers from Cyprus, the Cyclades Islands, the Peleponnesus and the Greek mainland, we got a chance to taste many wines and mezes from all around the region, and I got a chance to practice my pronunciation, with varying degrees of success! It was a wonderful evening, as we learned that Hellenic food and wine is more than just spanikopita and retsina.
