A Chicago Greektown Tradition

Unbeknownst to me until recently, Keith’s family has been going to The Parthenon restaurant in Chicago’s Greektown, for over 30 years!


And for more than 12 of those years, they have had the same waiter – Sal.

So last week when I got an invite to join them for a family lunch...I said "YES!!"

And WOW was it fun!!

From the meeting of Sal...


To the choosing from the menu...YIKES!



To the flaming of the Saganaki cheese...



A cold bottle of white wine, some crusty sesame seeded bread..


and a deliciously prepared entrée...


all rolled up with some really cute dining companions...


and the cost to me...

free

thanks phat daddy
