From the 1st November in time for party period, The Real Greek, the UK’s only group of authentic Greek restaurants, has launched a series of group dining packages that will allow Brits to eat and drink like Olympian gods this party season.
Groups of six or more can chose from one of three packages curated by Tonia Buxton, the face of Greek food in the UK, and featuring a feast of authentic Greek dishes. For £14.95, guests can choose Gaia, an entirely plant-based menu, for £16.95 there is Yiasou, which includes a mix of meat and vegetarian options, and at £19.95 parties can select Zorba, a premium option featuring nine individual dishes.
With every booking, guests will receive a third off the authentic Greek Red or White Ellinas (£12.00 per bottle, down from £18.00). Greece is the spiritual home of European wine making and so these special vintages have been hand chosen to perfectly pair with The Real Greek’s culinary offering and compliment any celebratory occasion.
Christos Karatzenis, Director of Operations at The Real Greek says: “Ellinas wine is the perfect celebratory tipple. It is specially bottled in Thessaloniki, with the Ellinas white wine being dry, delicate and floral, leaving notes of fragrant fruit on the palate, whilst the Ellinas red features ripe berry aromas. Both varieties bring out the authentic flavours of the Aegean and are perfect during the party season.”
