Bringing family together over food

What I enjoy most is bringing my whole family together through food. At the age of 77, I invite my children and grandchildren to dinner every Sunday, and I hope to always be able to do this, as far as my health allows. Family is extremely important to us in Greece. I like to share with you dishes that I have learned from my mother since childhood. Hopefully it will bring your family together in the same way it does my family on Sunday.”
