Greek Feast at Gardens of Salonica / Benefit for TC Daily Planet

[Jeremy Iggers]

Please join me for a family-style Greek feast on Wednesday November 11 at 7 p.m. at Gardens of Salonica in Northeast Minneapolis. Chef-owner Anna Christoforides will prepare a special menu of Greek specialties, including Cretan boureka, yigandes (giant beans), eggplant with tzatziki, chicken with roasted potatoes, masticha mousse with grape sauce, and a selection of very good Greek wines (included) - plus some surprise dishes that Anna insists on keeping secret. Anna will emerge from the kitchen from time to time to share stories of her recent culinary adventures in the Greek Isles. Suggested minimum donation is $30 per person, including wines; tax and tip are additional.
This dinner is a benefit for the Twin Cities Daily Planet (www.tcdailyplanet.net), and its non-profit sponsor, the Twin Cities Media Alliance (www.tcmediaalliance.org). (My employer.) The Twin Cities Daily Planet combines original reporting by citizen journalists with the best of the neighborhood and community press. The Daily Planet received the Minnesota Society of Professional Journalists' Page One Award for Best Independent News Website in 2008 and 2009.
Advance payment is required. To sign up, visit the Twin Cities Daily Planet donation page at https://www.thedatabank.com/dpg/262/donate.asp?formid=TCMAdonate and make a one-time donation. (Or if you are feeling generous, become a sustaining member.) Provide your contact information on the following page, and please be sure to write the words "Greek Dinner" in the comment box. These donations are not eligible for membership premiums, but any donation over $30 is tax-deductible, and will be greatly appreciated.

Hope to see you,
Jeremy
