A Taste of Greece: Lunch With Global Alive at Nerai

by xoJohn
On Wednesday, November 28th, we joined Global Alive founder Evageline Plakas at Nerai Restaurant, located in Midtown Manhattan. The Hellenic Culinary Luncheon took guests through a virtual journey of Greece with stunning visuals of the chic destination and delicious Greek cuisines. To get things started, Plakas welcomed guests with a champagne toast and explained Global Alive’s mission, which is to bring Greek/Cypriot-Americans closer together with the Greek community and its ever-growing enterprises. Currently, Global Live has two publications, Hellenic Golden Directory and HellenicDailyNews.com.

After a Summer of work, work, and more work we decided to take a few days of R&R before the holiday season. September through November is considered the off-season for Mexico, so it’s a good time to catch decent deals on travel and accommodations. Unfortunately, this is also the hurricane season which could be disastrous if attempting to travel during this time. Throwing caution to the wind, we booked our trip for late September and ended up with a storm-free week of fun and frivolity. The forecast literally called for Thunderstorms every damn day! It probably only rained for 20 minutes during the entire five days we were in Mexico. Otherwise, it was sunny and hot. We divided our trip into two parts; we spent two days exploring the streets of Playa Del Carmen before heading to The Grand at Moon Palace resort.
