Thursday Sips & Nibbles

I'm back again with a new edition of Sips & Nibbles, my regular column where I highlight some interesting, upcoming food and drink events. I hope everyone dines out safely, tips well and are nice to their servers.

1) To celebrate Boston Pride, Greco will be wrapping all: gyros (pork, chicken, lamb, bifteki (beef), loukaniko (pork and leek sausage), halloumi, veggie, vegan), fries with feta & oregano and loukoumades in special Pride packaging for the month of June. These will be available at all four locations - Newbury Street, Pier 4 Seaport, Milk Street and Hub Hall. The Greco team is also celebrating pride with new Rainbow Loukoumades (Greek style doughnuts) for a cause, with a portion of all proceeds going to Boston Pride.

2) After a three-year hiatus, the Boston Pizza Festival is returning to City Hall Plaza in Boston’s government center. This pizza event will take place on Saturday, June 24th and Sunday, June 25th from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. The Boston Pizza Festival will feature over 30 pizzerias in the New England and Greater Boston areas, along with select participating pizzerias hailing from Italy. The festival will feature something for everyone, with vegan and gluten-free options. Each pizzeria will be cooking in Marra Forni artisan pizza ovens.

Admission to the festival is free, with pizza tokens available for $3.00 available for purchases in varying packages upon arrival. Each token is good for one full-size slice of pizza.
