We are venturing once again to Pasparos Taverna, the ever-popular Greek restaurant for an evening of delicious vegan creations. Our group will enjoy our meal in the beautiful atrium, where it is easy to imagine that you have stepped through a door into an enchanting Greek village. Dinner will begin with Chef Katia’s famous Homous, served with warm pita bread, fresh out of the oven. Next we will try Fakkes, a velvety, lentil soup and out-of-this-world vegan Spanikopitas, savoury spinach and onion pies baked in filo pastry. We will also sample Greek Salad and Marouli Salad, a refreshing salad with finely chopped romaine lettuce, green onions, fresh dill, and olive oil vinaigrette. The main course will include their incredible Moussaka, a layered casserole with eggplant, zucchini, textured vegetable protein, and vegan béchamel sauce, as well as Briam, grilled vegetables, stewed in a tomato, herb gravy and served over Saffron Rice. Lemon Roasted Potatoes will also accompany our main course. Dinner will end with a sweet taste of Halva, a traditional dessert made with semolina and syrup.

Note: Pasparos is not taking reservations for the Earthsave dine-out - if you would like to join this group on May 6th, please contact Earthsave directly by following the links posted above :)
