Flaming Cheese in Camp Hill (Alternate title: Greek Food Festival
Took the scoot out to Camp Hill to check out the ultra-suburban but mega-authentic Greek Food Festival at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral today. (I’m actually there right now- well, when I typed this anyway- because of the convenient suburban, Camp Hill setting, there are no less than six wireless networks for me to choose from)
ANYWAY- This is the real deal when it comes to traditional Greek Orthodox cuisine and culture.
The main draw, it seemed, was the gigundo line waiting for Gyro’s, Spanakopita, Baklava and Falafel – but the highlight for DIS GUY had to be the Saganaki.
Nothing says “What a great weekend” like watching some cheese go up in a giant fireball on a Spring Saturday Afternoon.
Oopah! (Although Western grammar laws would presume the expression be spelled “Oh-Pa!”, the correct spelling is “Oopah; according to the guy making the cheese today in this video I grabbed.

Mmm…saganaki. I was there Saturday as well — the weather held and I enjoyed my gyro, saganaki, and of course loukoumades (Greek donuts).
Oo-pah!
Were you the one admiring my TMBG shirt?
I thought it might have been you afterwards, but by then I had left.
That, in fact, was me.
Thanks for stopping by.
