Can't wait to go this weekend. We are going to eat like fools, drink
wine, and bring home assorted pastries and lamb by the pound. http://atlantagreekfestival.org http://atlantagreekfestival.org/food.html Tara |

My husband I ate gyros, drank wine, and shared a frappe. One son ate a lamb sandwich; the other ate pastitsio. The kids had baklava sundaes later on. We thought we brought home a pound of sliced lamb, Greek potatoes, a Greek salad, and pastries, but when we got home we saw our order was completely wrong. My husband is going back to get it straightened out. Tara |

What do they do with the actual meat? My working theory is that they save it for themselves and laugh at the rest of us. Exceptions are so rare as to be almost nonexistent! |

I don't get any cartilage unless I order a lamb shank. > > Exceptions are so rare as to be almost nonexistent! Your picture must be in circulation for a while now. |
