something special, but you shouldn’t
expect the gift to be used during the meal.
(Προσφέρει το δώρο. Η οικοδέσποινα το
παίρνει και ευχαριστεί.
Τακτοποιούνται στο τραπέζι.)
PENΝY: Thanks a lot my dear! Both of you look
so beautiful!
ATHINA: Thank you! You look great indeed!
PENNY: Please come in! Would you like to drink
an aperitif, a porto or an aperol?
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Β’: No, thank you!
ATHINA: Me neither! Ohhh, the table looks
lovely!
PENNY: You are very kind! Sit down, please! …..
(Πετσέτες – σερβίρισμα. Πάγωμα)
ATHINA: I can’t wait to taste what you have
prepared for us!

SCENE B: «SERVING – BEHAVIOUR
MANUAL»
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Β’: The dinner starts when the host
picks up his knife unless he has allowed
the rest of the guests to start without
him. The guests usually wait for the host
to start eating and they try to eat at the
same pace. They usually wait for the host
to fill their glass instead of asking or
getting the bottle themselves. Everyone
should know their limits because it is not
nice to get drunk during a dinner. A
compliment on the dishes is always
welcome.
PENΝY: Let’s start!
ATHINA: Oh it looks delicious! What is it?
PENΝY: Roast beef with mushrooms.
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Β’: It tastes amazing! Is it your
recipe?
PENΝY: Yes, I learned it from my mother.
(σερβίρισμα κρασιού) Cheers!
(Πίνουν και πιάνουν μαχαιροπήρουνα….
Παγώνουν. Ζωντανεύουν οι κρητικοί).
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Α’: At a Cretan house the hostess
seldom sits down. She keeps going to the
kitchen throughout the dinner in order to
bring more dishes or fill the serving
platters that have been emptied. She is
very attentive to her guests, so she
constantly sees to such matters as the
amount of food in their plates, their
satisfaction with the dinner etc. A
compliment on the meal is, of course,
always welcome.
NATASHA: Please take some lamp, some
stuffed tomatoes, some rabit, some salad
…………………….
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Α’: Yes, thank you!
CHRISSI: Ok, thank you!
NATASHA: Have some more food, more food!
NATASHA: Do you like it ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Α’? Do you
like it Chrissi?
ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Α’: Yes, it’s very tasty!
CHRISSI: Yes, I love it!
NATASHA: Have some more ΠΕΛΑΤΗΣ Α’. You
are too thin».

οικοδέσποινας – Αθηνάς, στη διάρκεια που μιλάει η
Νικολέτα)
-So how was your trip?
-Oh, Rhodes was lovely and the beach was great.

-Even at this time of year?
-Yes, it wasn’t so cold… so we went swimming
almost everyday. We did a lot of shopping, too.
- Sounds like you had fun
-That’s’ certain
