Save the Greek for a trip to Mordor on the Lake. Stroll down Halsted ... Try the Paregon or Greek Islands. You'll get hit on by waiters, straight off the boat. Saganaki flaming up to the ceiling, Opa! Ouzo out the ears. OPA!!
Worth the trip. Just practice CCC. (criminal concealed carry)((jk))
A guy might choose based on the expectred aftermath. If I'm going to be hanging around with Partner, I might just have the Gyros and double-fried onion rings, and wash it down with a warm Liney's bock. The liklihood Partner would come to an unfortunate end is greatly improved. "Regular" greek food, like tiropita or dolmathes or even a good kebab over rice has no such ill effects.
Cajun, on the other hand, just gives me bad breath and hardly any noticeable aftereffects. And by "Hardly noticeable" I mean almost nobody ever even loses consciousness.
Hi All, I'm a regular lurker tho' rarely comment. As I'm from Oz and have never been to Indiana I really like the addition of the photos (which I suspect is a result of the new smart phone).
ignoring the direct issue, the left side of my brain reminds the right side of my brain that I will be driving through Indianapolis (or not, depending on the economy, and etc.) on business in mid-July or so, and would be pleased to stop at Moe & Johnny's or any other worthwhile place for lunch, either going out (the 24th, as now planned) or returning (the 30th, ditto). I may or may not be travelling as an American, as I will be driving through Chicago (pause to spit). Don't worry about anything fancy, as my plans are NOT firm.
I see you have discovered what I have discovered about cell phone photos: No lens cover means ya gotta remember to wipe the lens before taking the picture :)
Why not do both?
ReplyDeleteOrder Cajun, and then bitch because it isn't free, and the portions are too small.
Mmmmm Greek. Our one and only local Greek restaurant closed a few years ago. I'd sell what's left of my soul for good Greek food.
ReplyDeleteLook Ms. Cosmopolitan and all that, all MY lunch options end in D's. You know, Wendy's, MickeyD's, Hardee's, Captain D's etc. No reason to rub it in!
ReplyDeleteGreat replies by Ambo and Keads. I vote Cajun, myself.
ReplyDeleteMoe & Johnny's? is that the place that used to be a garage/filling station?
ReplyDeleteCajun, but that's just me.
ReplyDeleteI live in the deep south.
Mongo78,
ReplyDeleteApparently their main dining room used to be a Kroger's...
I'd avoid the Greek...
ReplyDeleteSure the food's great, but before you're out the door they'll be hitting you up for a "loan" to pay the mortgage and the payroll...

Cajun of course... Grillades and grits with a salad and biscuits :-)
ReplyDeleteOr, you could have crawfish etouffe!

ReplyDeleteSouvlaki on pita (lamb or pork, please-no feathered meat!), and slathered with garlicky tzatziki.
ReplyDeleteAdd a cold beer and a warm patio, and you wouldn't trade it for Heaven.
If you tried, you'd deserve to be in that Other Place.

ReplyDeleteforgive me...
ReplyDelete"Cajun"? Up THERE?!?!?!
No way, babe.
Too much "Cajun" away from the environs of south Louisiana is "anything with extra pepper".
