I know I know, it’s October, and you can’t get your head around why people are ALREADY talking about Christmas. Well we just don’t want you to miss out! Get those group bookings and private hire requests in early, and then there’s no last minute panic… just plenty of ouzo. This year we’re going bigger…
“Thou should eat to live; not live to eat”. Whoever came up with that phrase most definitely didn’t do enough living, if you ask me. Either that, or they hadn’t got round to trying authentic Greek food, from the best Greek restaurant in town. I make sure all my guests leave feeling a little more…
We must hand it to them. The French have done incredibly well at staking their claim as the world’s best wine producers. You rarely pass a restaurant in the evening without hearing the words ‘Malbec’, ‘Merlot’, ‘Sauvignon’ or ‘Chablis’ floating up from the tables. We hear this far too much at any given restaurant in…

For those who don’t know the Maltby Street Market (made up originally of former traders from Borough…
For me real Greek food, authentic Greek food, is simple Greek food. It is, well, as simple as that. Imagine: grilled lamb and yogurt sauce generously finished with olive oil – perhaps some aubergine or tomato fresh from the market as a side? Does it get better than that? Simple, tasty and totally delicious. The origins…
“You can kiss me on a cool day, a hot day, a wet day, whichever one you choose!” According to the lyrics of the title song from the classic Greek film Never On Sunday, any day of the week was ideal for kissing except for a, erm, Sunday. Well, the Hungry Donkey doesn’t know much…
Sometimes it feels as though everything good came from Greece! Think about it, without that warm and inviting country in the Mediterranean we wouldn’t have democracy, philosophy, science, drama, literature, mathematics or even the Olympic Games.
