The Aphrodite's Fountain Restaurant


For Brogan's Greek block, one of her projects was to open her own Greek restaurant. She gave the restaurant the lovely name of "Aphrodite's Fountain" She planned the menu from start to finish. We went shopping together and she prepared a lovely three course meal with two options for each course. The back ground music was the theme music from " the big fat Greek wedding" This made for a fantastic atmosphere. On went the apron and out came the order book. Starters were Torn pita bread bits with olive paste and tomato and feta or Hummus and olive bread sticks. Main course - Halloumi chicken pasta dish infused with a hint of mint or pasta with tomato and basil. Desert was baklava or full cream Greek yoghurt with crushed pumpkin seeds and nuts for a topping and pure organic honey drizzled on top.

It was a great success. Well done Brogan.
