Indy Greek Festival
Loukoumades, cocos, kourambiedes, koulouria, souvlaki, dolmathes, saganaki, spanakopita, baklava — what more of an incentive does a Road Trips Foodie need to put the Indy Greek Festival on his or her schedule. (Yes, there’s Greek wine, too.)
The fest is August 22 through 24, 2014. Hours are 4 to 10 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.
An Indianapolis institution for four decades, the fest moved north with its sponsor, Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, now found at 3500 West 106th Street, Carmel, Indiana (that’s a northside Indy suburb).
In addition to the fabulous traditional Greek food (which your Road Trips Foodie has indeed sampled over the years), there’s Greek dancing, Greek music, church tours and a marketplace.
