The “trapezia� - having friends and family over for a meal- have always been the main point of reference for deep and substantial communication among the people sharing the table and partaking the experience. For Greeks, gathering around a table is the most important and most beautiful moment to unfold thoughts, concerns, dreams, laughter and all kind of emotions.
