More information
After you’ve had your fill of your kielbasa and pirogis at the Portland Polish Festival, rally the next week for the same thing done Greek style.
Pastries and good food are the stars of the show here, although music and church tours shouldn’t be missed. Cooking demonstrations are cheap and focus on favorites such as salads, dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves) and baklava.
