It reminds me of the one time I've been to Greece to visit a friend living in Pireaus. It was a Saturday evening and a group of people were invited over to sing, play guitar, etc. The guests were asked to arrive after dinner time, but indeed one couple brought over this mile-high platter of pastries, cookies, and other dessert specialities (if I remember correctly, these were the neighbors whose window looked into the window of my friends's apartment---they simply called over from their open window to see what was happening that evening ;) ...and in addition to the dessert platter, was surprised me even more was another guest who brought over two 1 L bottles of Absolut Vodka!
