One notable suburb that became increasingly infiltrated with Greeks and even today continues to gain momentum as a major Hellenic precinct, is Oakleigh.
On our Greek food walking tour, we will share with you stories of migration and what role food played in the upholding of culture and tradition. Our host is knowledgeable both in food and loves the culture of her home country. She looks forward to sharing her stories with you.
Join us in exploring some of the delicious eateries of Oakleigh, as we help you uncover the best places to enjoy authentic Greek food. We visit a Greek cake shop and learn about the various types of cakes among the Greek cuisine, sample traditional baked goods made fresh daily on site, taste deli produce and learn about the products that heavily feature in Greek home kitchens, visit a Greek store to learn about religious customs and cultural traditions and lastly enjoy a delicious souvlaki and learn about the different ways it is prepared and served.
Get ready to enjoy Greek hospitality at its absolute best!
