We continued to explore our find in our neighborhood, the store selling Greek food and wine. We decided to try out their home-made yoghurt and fruit preserves. We sampled their different fruits-in-syrup offerings and decided to get a jar each of rose petals and grapes. Unfortunately, it turned out that they no longer had a small jar of rose petals in stock and we ended up getting a larger jar but of the original packaging that they transported from Greece to the Philippines. We were told that these were their products in Greece that they brought to Manila as samples for their clients, which includes restaurants and hotels. For retail and "bulk" orders, they bring in the preserves in larger containers and re-pack them here in smaller jars or containers. This was less expensive compared to importing their products in jars.

I'm already looking forward to the weekend when we can get yoghurt and perhaps sample other goodies from our neighborhood Greek store. I just hope the weather holds this coming weekend.
