We had a wonderful lunch with Nevin. We learned how to make borek and a zucchini and yogurt dish. Nevin prepared for our meal by making a met-in-your-mouth moussaka. Dessert was a surprise, pumpkin poached in syrup. Our conversation was easy. Nevin speaks English very well. She is a gracious and thoughtful host
