WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Screams of "Opa!" will accompany flames in the tents outside of Sts. Constantine and Helen Orthodox Church in Wauwatosa this weekend. For the 55th year, Tosa Greek Fest is offering a free festival filled with food, dancing and family fun.
Spits are already full of half chickens slowly cooking over charcoal. The grill smell mixed with Greek music and dances will create the perfect atmosphere for the loved tradition.
“We have friends, we have strangers, we have Greeks come from all over the U.S. and Greece," said George Karioris, known as Milwaukee’s Godfather of Saganaki.
Saganaki, sometimes called flaming cheese, is one of many Greek foods, including Greek salads, Baklava and other pastries.
The festival runs 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, 12 p.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
It’s free and open to all. Click here for additional information.
