Chicago Greektown dinner

[greggy]

Order the Kleftiko (traditional Greek dish) for dinner if you go or the Rack of Lamb, and don't forget the Saganaki appetizer.

 

 

I love their dolmades They're outstanding

 

Soon as I land on the 22nd, my mom will have those ready for me along with some Souvlakia

 

It's been a while since I had homemade dolmades. Be sure to take plenty of pics, Nik. You know it's been 30 years since I've been to Greece

They don't want you back.

[greggy]

nik says that I should order the Oktapodi appetizer

I´m gonna be in Thessaloniki for some time. Exeis xronia na ertheis Ellada?

Great news. I couldn't make it on Friday but Thursday is a definite. Only wish the Boston Greek was going to be there.

 

I request seating more than a drink spill away from Greggie.

 

I had a very nice time sitting next to Greggy at the forum dinner...he's a great dinner companion, so stop that;)

 

 

Where is this place? We will be in town Wednesday, it's the only way I could use my airline points.

[nik]

I have been going every other year since 2004.

 

I will be landing in Thessaloniki around 12 PM on Wednesday the 22nd and Katerini is about a 35 minute drive.

How's the lemon/rice soup?

 

The food is outstanding. If you click on the link the have a menu you can look at. To be honest, I'm not 100% sure they have αυγώλεμόνo soup. It sounds like heresy, I know.

 

No Avgolemono? WTH?

He didn't spill any drinks at the forum dinner although he did complain when I brought Nik a beer. I suppose the lesson is:

1) Sit next to Greggy at the forum dinner not the greektown dinner and

2) Bring Greggy a beer also.

Dude, anytime he has anything in his hand, it's a loaded weapon.

They asked me if I wanted to put together a custom menu. Maybe I'll add chicken fingers to it
