Last weekend, we went to our favorite Greek restaurant. And by favorite, yes, all four of us agree. So does everyone else we’ve ever taken there.
We ate outside, right on the sidewalk, people watched, and ate some really good food … Why does everything taste better outside – even in the city?
That’s the husband, looking forward to good food and an ice cold beer. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share instead of four separate meals. We had salad, calamari, amazing homemade grilled herbed meatballs, grilled haloumi cheese, grilled octopus, and the best handmade fries. YUM!
We could go there every week and not get tired of it. And it is the kind of place where they never rush you out, even on a busy Saturday night. I think we spent nearly two hours there, chatting, people watching and enjoying the food and each other.
Next time any of you come to New York, we are so going there!
Have a great weekend!
Best,
Stephanie

Stephanie!!! WOW! Greek food, fun, family, what more could anyone want? Like the French, I think that the Greeks really know how to enjoy their fabulous cuisine, but who wouldn't love this faire....such fresh ingredients and luscious flavors such as oregano. Happy days to you and your family, and thank you so much for coming over!!! Anita
ReplyDeleteSounds wonderful Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteI love dining outdoors and people watching.:-)
We used to go to a great Greek restaurant back in England but I've never actually been to one in the US! Shame you put away your camera after the salad I was wanting to know what else you ate ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe food looks yummy and it's fun to see a nice photo of your hubby too. :o) Glad the four of you got to enjoy a good meal and company!
ReplyDeleteI will never be in New York but if I did I sure would try that place. Sounds really good. I also think it is so nice for you two to spend quality time whenever you can.
ReplyDeleteOh yum, my favorite food! Sounds like the best time!
