As the Turks sent us
away as "Greeks"...
while the Greeks received
us as "Turks".
Good morning!
Hi...
May l?
There you are...
So?...
When we learned he
was ill yesterday...
I remember I had received
an x-ray with a note attached...
Wait... Here it is.
"Dear Thrasyvoule,
I'm sending this x-ray"...
"so that when we meet again
I can have your opinion".
"Don't tell my relatives.
If I do not come...
then give it
to Fanis".
Grandpa...
This time I actually thought
he would come. I was certain.
What can we do?
That's how it is.
But you... have travelled the world
and you never went to see him.
Why my son?

Who was it that taught you
about King Voulgaroktonos?
and he ate yellow tail tuna.
- Where did you learn about tuna?
- ln Constantinople we had the best fish!
Sure, whenever the Bosporos overflooded
and the fish came through your windows!
- The fishermen brought us the best fish!
- So where are they now?
I forget, you forget,
he forgets...
We forget, You forget,
they forget...
- Hi, son...
- What's for lunch?
- Beans...
- Again?

"Dearest Fanis...
I miss you a lot"...
"Your grandpa said I'll go with
him when he goes to Greece".
"You'll cook for me
and I'll dance for you".
"Your friend, Saime."

That's for tomorrow.
Papa is fasting.
Then why did you
prepare it last night?
Holy...!
- Sultana, are you kidding?
- I had the eggplants in a bag!
Didn't you tell me that
Aunt Efterpi is a sleep walker?
Sleepwalking is hereditary.
You wake up and cook.
Good Lord...
But I never put
nutmeg in "lmam".
- It's the best lmam I've ever had.
- But I didn't cook it!!
Fanis, wake up...
- The plane will land any minute now.
- I'm not going.
How come? Don't you want to be
there to welcome your Grandpa?
I'll stay here
and help my aunties.
Tell me son... Where you
in the kitchen last night?
Grandpa will sit there... and his
friends... Better not there...
He will be facing the kitchen, here... no,
it will look like the Last Supper...
No, that is the best spot.
Nice, very nice...
They've arrived!
I can see him!
With our cuisine you always
feel that something is missing...
not from the food but from
On that day, both Grandpa
and I were absent from the table.
