2003

   This year we ventured over to Toronto to go to the 10th Anniversary Krinos Taste of the Danforth. It's a street festival in Greektown celebrating Greek cuisine and culture. The festival organizers have estimated over 1.2 million people came to the event over the three days it was held. This year the festival was partnering with Greece to highlight the upcoming 2004 Athens Olympics. Hundreds of sidewalk and roadside stalls offered a range of food for the main course from keftedes to souvlaki, and for dessert, an assortment of Greek pastries, including baklava, kataifi and loukoumades. Polish perogies, East Indian samosas, and Japanese sushi were also available.

 With a beer and wine garden, and the local pubs' sidewalk tables serving up brew, there were many places to just sit and relax and take in all the festivities. The festival  hosted a fashion show and three live music stages featuring various artists such as Melanie Doane and traditional Greek folk music
