Still on Dessert - New Sweets at Ovelia

Ovelia's sweet offering just got a little sweeter with new dessert items that are Greek inspired with a modern twist:

Strawberry Banana Crepe - Topped with honey and walnuts...$8
Glyka Koutaliou (Spoon Sweets) - Served over Greek yogurt or ice cream with a choice of fig or sour cherry preserves...$6
Loukomades (little Greek donuts) - Topped with with Nutella or orange marmalade and served with ice cream and walnuts...$8

New sweet items come not only in eats but also in drinks. Here are some of Ovelia's new cocktail options:

Rakomelo - Hot Raki with honey, cinnamon, cardamom, clove...$8

Portuguese Sangria - Port wine over ice with a sprig of mint and a slice of orange
Bubble Berry Tea-ni - Blackberry tea, raspberry vodka, chambord, champagne, honey, lemon, garnished with mint

I continue to love Ovelia because they never stop reinventing their menu and trying new, interesting things. Try 'em out and see what you think.

  2. Hi Gar,
    There are plenty of great things for veggies - eggplant dip, kafteri spicy spread (spicy feta), zucchini croquettes and yummy salad options.
