Opa the Greek translation: Oh my god, the cheeze is on fire. We had a wonderful meal at Hella's in Tarpon Springs last night to celebrate our 36th. I heard someone shout out "opa" several times during the meal. It seems like it's a greek tradition to shout out "opa" when a platter of flaming cheeze arrives at the dinner table. Ok, I admit it, I peeked, but OPA does not mean the cheese is on fire, it means "HELL YEAH" and then after you scream "OPA" it is a signal to the waitress that your glass is empty and it is time to fill it back up with OUZO. They cut you off from any more OUZO when you fall into the plater of flaming cheese. Sheesh, you need to get your Greek correct. ![]() -- Reginald P. Smithers III, Esq.
