Fresno Holy Trinity Church Plans Food Bazaar
Fresno’s Holy Trinity Armenian Apostolic Church is planning to hold its annual food bazaar on October 18th.
The event features authentic Armenian cuisine. Lunch will be served from 11AM-2PM and mezza and dancing from 6PM-10PM. This year’s menu features Beef, Chicken and Lulu Kebab. Meals include pilaf, Yalanchi (stuffed grape leaves), salad, bread and dessert. Mezza (Armenian Appetizers) is also being offered for dinner only.
“Our men’s and ladies society get together and work endless hours to prepare and cook all the foods that will be served at both lunch and dinner,” said event chairperson Evelyn Hamamjian. “Everything served, including dessert, is homemade at the church.” Meals are available dine-in, drive-thru and takeout.
Doors open at 10AM. A country store will feature frozen and baked items for sale. Vendors will be selling handmade and vintage items. Tickets for a 50/50 raffle will also be sold.
“The funds raised help with the upkeep of the church and its community,” Hamamjian said. The church is located on the corner of Cesar Chavez Blvd (Ventura) and M Street in Old Armenian Town.
The sanctuary was built in 1914 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. There will also be live Armenian music from 6PM-10PM.
