| - Back for our annual vacation dinner at Greekfest. As before, we started with some Retsina white wine and the antipasto appetizer (which comes with warm pita wedges). The antipasto (described as: "Taramosalata, Melintzanosalata, Tzatziki, Homous, Dolmathes, Feta Cheese, Fasolia, Kalamata olives and sweet onions") is a terrific sampler for two, and highly recommended. The Greek salad was also excellent, while the Steak Makedonias (filet mignon with reduced cabernet-pomegranate sauce) was tasty, but a little dry at the edges -- they recommended medium-rare, but I ordered it medium, and the result was more like medium-well. And filet mignon is probably not a Greek specialty. However, my girlfriend's calamari was delicious.
I'm already looking forward to next year....
