Eugene's Greek Food 01.11.2020

Ever wonder why Eugene’s spells Hummus Homous ? When Eugene (Evgeni) Vassiliadis moved to Victoria in 1974 with his young family from Greece, he didn’t know the English language. After going to night school with his wife Lina (Paschalina) he slowly began to learn English but was not proficient in writing. In 1979 when they opened their first restaurant in downtown Victoria they did their best for spelling the Greek menu items in English. Hummus is not a Greek dish but... a close Lebanese friend shared their recipe for it and Eugene & Lina adding their personal touches created this yummy Homous. As Hummus was not a staple as it has become now in people’s homes and the supermarket, no one else had a spelling for it. So Eugene spelled it how he pronounced it, and this is how Eugene’s Homous came to be. Over the years we never corrected it as we thought it’s the quirky way our family started with this dish so we decided to keep the memories going. Funny thing is a couple other companies starting after us use our spelling to this day.
