OMG Greek Week High Tea at Hotel Lindrum

The World Loves Melbourne was invited to the fabulous OMG Greek Week High Tea at Hotel Lindrum. As part of a celebration of Hellenic culture, cuisine and community Oh My Greek Week was celebrated during the week of the 21st to 26th November with several creative and fun events. If anyone knows how to have a good time it's the Greeks, with the sophistication and technique of extraordinary desserts.

Lead by chef, TV personality, restaurateur and author George Calombaris, Oh My Greek Week featured some of the most famous Greek chefs from Australia and around the world, who all came together in Melbourne for a week of culinary creation and cross collaboration. We think not only did the chefs have fun showcasing their skills before a captive audience of foodies, but surely they had fun behind the scenes connecting.
