Bon appétit!

While Kwanzaa has seven days, Chanukah eight nights, and Christmas 12 days, Greek Orthodox Christmas lasts 14 days, giving us all more time to celebrate. And with food from Greek International Market in West Roxbury, there is a lot to celebrate at this season or any time!

From in-store prepared foods that are inspired (indded!) by the Farm Grill in Newton (another favorite of mine!) and amazing sandwiches to authentic Greek imports that range from chocolate and a raft of olive oils to their famous tzatziki yogurt sauce (which goes great on pretty much anything!) and a wide range of Greek wines, Greek International Market has been supplying many during the pandemic and is sure to put together the perfect gift or catering menu for your holidays, no matter what you celebrate or for how long.

If you are new to Greek food or just can’t decide which items to try next, the talented team at the Market (headed by the savvy and personable Katerina Iliades) can assemble one of their famed “Taste of Greece” baskets. No matter what size or price point you pick, these bountiful baskets are sure to please any friend, colleague, or family member. They also make great “thank you” gifts for your favorite colleagues and service workers. 

Whether or not you are Greek Orthodox or even if you do not celebrate anything this time of year (other than perhaps Festivus), this season is a great excuse (as if you needed one) to treat your friends and family and yourself to some of the best international food around at Greek International Market.
