Our take: Andersonville’s Aegean escape: It’s Greek 2 U brings Santorini sunshine to the Midwest. Bring your own ouzo and prepare to smash plates (metaphorically).

Wine Pairing: Greek food calls for Greek wine. Bring an Assyrtiko from Santorini or a red Xinomavro. For a familiar option, a crisp Sauvignon Blanc works well.

Beer Pairing: A Greek lager like Mythos pairs perfectly with Mediterranean flavors. For a craft option, try a crisp pilsner or a wheat beer.

Spirits Pairing: Ouzo is the classic Greek spirit. Bring a bottle of Plomari or Metaxa. For a non-anise option, bring a bottle of gin for Mediterranean-inspired cocktails.
