Mid-East Food Festival
Authentic Mid-Eastern cuisine, live music, folk dancing and the Dabke dance group will be some of the offerings at the St. John Chrysostom Melkite Catholic Church. Can you think of a better way to spend a day than enjoying good food and music with family and friends? The assortment of food and pastries will be available for purchase at prices ranging from $2 to $15. And, if I remember correctly they also offer some of the most delicious coffee you’ve ever tasted!
