Dinner @ Lemnos Taverna

Let's do Greek! Lemnos Tavern seems to have a pretty good [group menu](https://lemnostaverna.com.au/banquets/) at $77 per person. As usual, a $20 deposit will be required to secure your spot (to avoid no-shows and last minute cancellations). This will be returned to you on the night, or if you change your RSVP with at least 48hr notice. See you there! Priscila
