“The gyros are amazing. All the food is very tasty, and the nice array of pastries that they have, which I grew up on as well,” Plains Township Leah Garrah said.
“We try to keep the traditions alive from, from our parents and our grandparents through the food here,” Parish Council Member Dina Banas stated.
The festival runs through Friday, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. each day.
