Ein sehr unterhaltsamer Abend mit griechischem Folklore-Tanz, bei dem man sehr liebevoll zum mitmachen aufgefordert wurde. Es wurde ein typisch und extrem gutes Abendessen serviert. Unsere TUI Leiterin für diesen Abend, Dagmar, war sehr herzlich und hat den Abend wunderbar unterstützt. Ich war begeistert und werde dieses Event bei einem weiteren Besuch gerne wiederholen und kann diesen Abend nur empfehlen. Die guten drei Stunden vergingen wie im Flug und bleiben mir noch lange im Gedächtnis!
Good food and good fun are on the menu at Popolaros Greek Taverna. Get in the holiday mood with this classic Greek evening – you'll try lots of typical local dishes, carefully prepared by Giorgios and his team. As the sun sets over the island, the candles are lit and the actors take to the stage. The sound of the bouzouki fills the air, and you find yourself tapping your feet to the rhythm. Dmitri, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Why not try dancing the zeibekiko traditional Greek dance? You follow the rhythm as the tempo gets faster and faster.'
The evening begins with a transfer to the inviting taverna, where you can indulge in the traditional cuisine of Zante, prepared where possible with produce fresh from the family's own farm. Homemade bread is made from their own wheat, and most of the meat is reared on the farm, too. Organic vegetables are grown by the family for salads and sides, and you'll even get unlimited wine to sip on.
Dmitri says, ‘My memories of family gatherings, holidays and special occasions all involve my mother, aunts and grannies baking. Frigania in summer, raisin and walnut-stuffed buns at Christmas and, all year-round, wood-fired oven-baked bread.' Popolaros is a traditional taverna where every dish is a celebration of the rich culture and traditions of Greece. As you finish your meal, sit back and enjoy a performance of local theatre with infectious Zakynthian music.
