Get your Greek on > Opa!

Annual food festival opens next week. One of the area’s most anticipated ethnic food events returns next week: Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church’s annual Greek Food Festival.

The festival will run Tuesday through June 9 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. each day at the church, 505 N. Washington Ave.

A bevy of authentic Greek dishes will be served, including gyro, pastitsio, moussaka, baklava, spanakopita and dolmades. The church will also be selling cookbooks featuring all of the festival’s dishes, including one for galaktoboureko, a dessert consisting of a filo pastry stuffed with a custard filling.

Tents will be set up outside the church for patrons who want to eat there, while takeout orders can be placed by calling 342-0566 or by fax at 342-9722.
