Zorba nights SQ
NETWORKING MADE FUN AND EASY
In the Academy award-winning movie, Zorba the Greek, a highly-strung boss named Basil asks Zorba to teach him how to dance after the failure of his mining venture. Zorba responds with a look of disbelief and the famous line, “Dance? Did you say, ‘dance’?!” and so the story concludes with them both dancing triumphantly on the beach.
Dancing is a vitally important aspect of the Greek culture… and we think that should be the case for every culture! Unwind, relax and bond with your work colleagues, family or friends over a Zorba night here at The Greek Club.
Start the evening with a cooking lesson and Greek cocktails. Feast, chat, laugh and then work off your dinner by learning how to dance the Zorba. End the evening on a sweet note with delicious Greek desserts.
