Summary |
Nostalgic trip to the days when the Greek Cafe was the gathering place for every town and suburb. Effy Alexakis's evocative photos are paired with marvellous images from family albums. The cafes and the people behind them, showing decor, milkshakes, sundaes and innovative sweets were combined in a unique and special Australian experience. The authors have travelled Australia, Greece, Egypt and the USA, tracking down cafes, milk bars and their forerunners overseas. |
