Tsiknopempti is a Greek pre-lent celebration where you feast on barbecue meat! Literally meaning Smelly Thursday, or even Charred, Smoky, or Barbeque Thursday because of the smell of the grilled meat in the air. This is part of the traditional celebrations for Carnival season in Greece and Cyprus.

The Nostimo Herb Garden

Out the front of our restaurant, all around the Nostimo sign is a herb garden. Mixed in with other greenery so you may not notice unless you’re looking there is an abundance of herbs.

We’re home to Greek basil, rosemary, thyme, oregano, cherry tomatoes, creeping thyme and creeping rosemary. And they’re most definitely not here just for decoration. Our chefs use these herbs in various dishes. They have recently been using a lot of our Greek basil as it’s been growing out of control. Greek basil is a great herb that will survive when it’s a little cooler but thrives in the warm weather that Queensland provides.

Drunken Greek Prawns…last seen at Nostimo Restaurant & Bar in West End!

You know it’s going to be a fantastic summer when the menu boasts DRUNKEN GREEK PRAWNS! Chef in Residence at Nostimo Restaurant & Bar at West End, the acclaimed flavour-maker David Tsirekas, has added this brilliantly named dish to a menu that celebrates classic Greek dishes in a thoroughly modern way.

And that’s not the only new addition – he has also once again called on his love of Greek literary texts and introduced the Tselementes Mousaka 1910, based on the original 1910 recipe of braised lamb, potato gratin, eggplant and bechamel layers.

Strong Teams Lunch Together

Lunch just isn’t about physically fueling your team. Breaking the bread together is a powerful way to build company culture and stir innovation.

Companies are always looking at ways they can impact the culture of their workplace, with the hope that developing the right company culture will in turn lead to happier employees and better results. One way to do this is to have a ‘working lunch’ to improve employee relations, generate great ideas with increased collaboration and improve the overall company culture.
