tegan's birthday at pelakas

---

So for my friend Tegan's Birthday we got all the female staff from the pink palace (where we work) to go out for dinner (quite a feat since usually there is at least one of us on at a time.) We went to Pelakas, another small village near by, to have dinner at Kastalanis. It was amazing amazing amazing! We all ordered a bunch of starters to share. And holy wow my god, this food is DANK! I was unconvinced that I even liked greek food all that much until I ate this food. turns out i have just been eating at the wrong places. (sorry pink palace) We had Saganaki- which is a big chunk of fried cheese you can eat on the toasted bread that comes out. There was also had Melitzanes Fourno ( this eggplant baked dish )that disappeared in no time which had cinnamon in it, sounds weird, but soooo good! Then we had Kolokilokeftedes, which were fried balls with zucchini and maybe cheese inside. By the time I ate all the starters plus some wine I realized there was no need to order a main. But here it came!!!! These huge meat ball type things with gouda cheese in the middle! We all ate so much it was painful and most of us took home leftovers.

After dinner we headed to a really cool bar in Pelakas. Check out the pics! After some chatting and a cocktail we called it a night.
