These dishes have Greek, Ottoman as well as Middle Eastern infl uences which result in a unique blend of culinary delight. MEZE is a food trend that will have you rethink the concept of a meal.

way of life in countries like Turkey, Greece, Israel, Lebanon and Egypt.Whatever the term or its ethnic roots, it is a meal comprised of many of small dishes that make lunch or dinner a fun experience. The main reason for being around
the MEZE table is to share thoughts with friends over delicious food and a glass or two of wine. MEZE means party food - so let’s party!

“A flurry of juvenile
gags and slapstick
humour... and

comical events”

lack of chemistry
between the two
leads inevitably
detracts from
any emotional
attachment the
audience may have
with the couple’s
dilemma”
