Culture & traditions
Dinner – a perfect occasion for interesting discussions. Mediterranean dinner implies a certain deliberateness of those assembled at the table in addition to the abundance of dishes and treats.
The ancient Greeks did not like to have their meals alone, and a dinner without the company of those dear to you was disappointing. The music, dancing and the warm-hearted conversation were a traditional addition to the meals.
