I ordered like that once in a Greek restaurant in Toronto in the mid
60s. I was visiting my aunt and spend a day helping my cousin on his
milk delivery route. We stopped for lunch at a place. I don't remember
the name or exact location but it was kind of a grubby looking place on
the second floor of a building.We went back to the kitchen and pointed
to what we wanted.
