This bustling, tavern inspired eatery brings a traditional Greek
influence with a modern-day twist. Large wooden doors lead you into the this
family-friendly restaurant and make you feel welcome, along with being greeted
by their friendly staff who make sure you are comfortable throughout your
entire dining experience. The mosaic tiling in the group dining area brings a
splash of colour to the room and the walls are stocked up with traditional
condiments, spices and other goodies.
In agreement with the restaurant’s recommendations itself, I would
recommend the Trapezi menu. In the spirit of sharing, this menu includes four
plentiful courses which comprise of a Meze selection, seafood, meat and of
course a dessert – but don’t expect one plate! Each course is a feast within
itself!
I have dined here on a few occasions now and the menu has changed from
time to time, but not once have I been disappointed!
My two favourites from the menu, without a doubt every time, would
have to be the Cypriot grain salad (which accompanies the course of seafood)
and the Tyri Saganaki (covered in caramelised peppered figs)!!
I must say, I am thankful these two items arrive in the earlier
courses of this delectable feast, as I would be regretful to run out of room
towards the end of the meal! In saying that, yes – the serving sizes are
certainly more than enough (I wasn’t lying when I said ‘plentiful’) so plenty
to share all around.
If you haven’t yet experienced this amazing feast, I would
certainly say it’s time for you to head down Brunswick East way… but be sure to
get in early as weekend dining is generally booked out well in advance – and
understandably so!
