SUMMARY:Sts Constantine & Helen Church Throws a Big Greek Festival
DESCRIPTION:\n\nThu 7/23 @ 4-9PM\nFri 7/24 @ 4-11PM\nSat 7/25 @ noon-11PM\n
 Sun 7/26 @ noon-7PM\nThere are quite a few Greek festivals around town\, b
 ut few match the one at Sts Constantine &amp\; Helen Greek Orthodox Church
  in Cleveland Heights.\nFor four days you can enjoy the sights\, sounds an
 d smells of Hellenic culture\, traditions and history\, starting of course
  with the copious amount of food available\, prepared by parishioners. The
 re’s souvlaki\, dolmades\, gyros\, moussaka\, spanakopita\, pastitsio 
 — we could go on and on — and many ways to enjoy them\, from fine dini
 ng in the Cathedral Center to more casual dining outside. And there’s a 
 massive pastries list — 19 in all\, including chocolate baklava\, which 
 we’d like to try. (After all that food\, you’ll probably want to take 
 these home\; they’re happy to box them up for you.)\nThere are also spec
 ialty cocktails with Grecian themes at the Odyssesy Bar and Zeus’ juices
  inspired by the Greek Isles. Is ouzo available? Of course. Just don’t t
 ry drinking 10 or 12 of them in a couple of hours like a friend of mine di
 d at the Agora once.\nThere’s plenty in addition of eating and drinking.
  There’s live Greek music\, Hellenic dancers\, church tours\, cooking de
 monstrations — those parishioners are happy to share their secrets so yo
 u can enjoy this food at home — and vendors with Grecian jewelry and oth
 er cultural items for sale. And there’s a vesper service at 5pm Saturday
 .  New this year is the Kids Zone. Not happening is the flea market — t
 hey’re going to do that in September so be sure to ask the dates.\nAdmis
 sion is free\; and there’s a free shuttle from Severance Center.\nstscon
