## Story

Starting March 1, and falling within Greek Heritage Month, the café is honoring its 25th anniversary and showing appreciation to its loyal guests by partying like it’s 1998! That’s right, Taziki’s is serving select menu items at the original price from 25 years ago throughout the month with a new offer each week including:

- **March 1-5** - Traditional Hummus Dip for $2 (6 oz. portion)

- **March 6-12** - Greek Lemon Chicken Soup for $3.50

- **March 13 - 19** - Greek Salad for $5.75 (no protein)

- **March 20 - 26** - Taziki Dip for $2 (6 oz. portion)

- **March 27 - 31** - A FREE Commemorative 25th Anniversary Cup with every beverage purchase (while supplies last).

In addition, guests can jam out to their favorite 90’s hits inside the café to fully get the experience of living life before the turn of the century.

“Our brand is bigger than just us and we thank everyone for celebrating our silver anniversary,” said CEO of Taziki’s Dan Simpson. “We began in Birmingham after a trip to Greece where our founder Keith Richards and his wife Amy discovered small-table Mediterranean cafés. They fell in love with the idea that everyone in the community gathered to connect around healthy flavors and to celebrate life in these cafés. They wanted to replicate that feeling of warmth and togetherness, so they opened the first Taziki's Mediterranean Café in 1998.”

For the sixth year in a row, the Mediterranean diet has been ranked best overall diet in the U.S. News & World Report annual rankings. Taziki’s is the place to enjoy a delicious, vibrant, Mediterranean meal and - a healthy lifestyle.
