The Bayshore Greekfest Begins Tonight in Monmouth County

Why do so many folks in New Jersey love Greek food? It's pretty simple, it’s delicious, filling, and always seems to hit the spot. Whether you're digging into a gyro, enjoying a Greek salad loaded with feta, or sharing a plate of souvlaki with family and friends, the flavors are fresh and satisfying.

A lot of us also grew up seeing Greek dishes on diner menus and at local family-owned restaurants, so it feels like a familiar part of Jersey's food scene. And honestly, who can say no to a warm pita and a side of tzatziki? That's a big reason Greek food has such a loyal following here in the Garden State.

I love Greek food and have always loved the churches and the history of Greece. It's truly a facinating culture and their festivals are always a lot of fun with music, dancing, and food. My wife April has been to Greece and she loved it. I hope to get their one day myself.

Tonight, Thursday, June 4th, the Bayshore Greek Festival Kicks off in Holmdel.
