If you like roast lamb and pastitsio, plan on being at the Church of the Annunciation in Cranston this weekend.

If you like gyros and souvlaki, plan on being inside the Rev. Peter G. Mihailides Center at 175 Oaklawn Ave.

If you like baklava and rizogalo, plan on taking in the annual Greek Food Fair that will be held Saturday and Sunday – rain or shine – in the church’s spacious Demetrakas Hall.

“We’ll be serving authentic Greek food, just like we offer at our annual Cranston Greek Festival every September,” said Paul Pliakas from the Greek Orthodox parish. “We’ll even have a café and bookstore operating for two days.”

The Greek Food Fair, which first made its debut back in May 2009 after a near hurricane wiped out the parish’s annual festival in September of that year, will be held Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

“Our ladies have been baking and our chefs are ready to prepare the popular Greek lunches and dinners,” Pliakas said. “We’ll also have plenty of the always-popular Greek pastries and coffee.”

Pliakas said the lunch and dinner menu will feature roasted lamb, pork souvlaki, and roasted chicken plates that include Greek salad, roasted potatoes or rice pilaf, as well as bread and rolls.

Side offerings include the highly-popular gyro sandwich, spanakopita (spinach pie), cheese pie, and dolmades, which are rice stuffed grape leaves.

“All items on our menu are reasonably priced,” Pliakas said.

“For example, our gyro sandwich – which is a blend of beef and lamb, bread crumbs, and spices grilled and served with onions, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce in a grilled pita bread – is only $8.”

The same holds true for the Greek Pastry Shoppe, which includes baklava, galaktoboureko, koulourakia, karydopita and kourabiethes – which are all different cookies and cakes – that feature ingredients such as Greek honey syrup.

Pliakas said that while baklava – which is chopped walnuts and layers of buttered phyllo dough topped with Greek honey syrup – is perhaps the most popular item, many people opt for the rizogalo.

The rizogalo, he added, “is grandmother’s classic Greek version of traditional rice pudding topped with cinnamon. It just may sell out by the time Sunday rolls around. And, we’ll even have a baklava sundae.”

There’s plenty of free parking on the church grounds, and the Mihailides Center is handicap accessible. For more information, please call the Church of the Annunciation at 401-942-4188.
