Greek customs
The main dish at the Easter Table is the lamb or goat. Served in honor of the Lamb of God who was sacrificed and rose again on Easter, the whole spiced lamb roasted over a charcoal fire is the most traditional of Greek Easter foods.

Δεν νοείται ελληνικό Πάσχα χωρίς τον πατροπαράδοτο οβελία. Aρνάκι ή κατσικάκι, αλλά και το κοκορέτσι! (Στη φωτογραφία η Τσέρολ Χατζή με το γιό της Φώτη, στη Θεσσαλονίκη, Πάσχα 2010). Δείτε το ιστολόγιό της: Rice, beans & pastichio

Its always interesting to see other countries' customs, but I do feel sorry for the little lamb, although he looks delicious.
Keep well.

I have never tasted lamb meat but have eaten goat during the war.
Enjoy this day. It was your future yesterday.
Nice to know other places tradition. Thanks for sharing. Great shot.
Grilled lamb meat is delicious. I especially like marinated lamb meat on skewers.
Greece is now in the news, and I hope this lovely country gets her financial matters settled so that she can dedicate herself entirely to her splendid culture and magnificient touristic sites.
I love lamb and have eaten goat as well.
Greece looks like a wonderful place. I am German and was born in Germany but immigrated to America when I was young.
Still have a great interest in Europe, its history, people and customs.
Congratulations on sensitive habit is fantastic.
A dear friend kiss.
Συνήθως στο στόμα του ψητού βάζουν ένα κόκκινο αυγό.
Και του χρόνου!
Oi Phivos!
Obrigada pelas suas visitas e seu comentários.
Já estive aqui e acho ótimo o seu blog. Adoro conhecer lugares novos, mesmo que por imagens. O único problema é que eu não leio inglês nem grego. Ficaria muito melhor se eu lesse. Vc tem aqui um tradutor?
