Thursday’s ‘Taste of Romeo’s’ menu: Spicy Euro Baba Ganoush

The weekly five-course dinners, hosted by chef Romeo Taus and his wife, Janice, in a private dining room, typically highlight a rotating selection from the regular menu at Romeo’s Euro Cafe in Gilbert.

This week, however, a new dish will make its debut: Spicy Euro Baba Ganoush with Feta (pictured).
