Our first day in Chicago, we walked into the
Sears Tower and learned the line for the trip to the top was around the corner, but while there I asked for a suggestion of a place to eat. The fellow at the desk suggested a restaurant in
Greektown six or so blocks away. We didn't like the look of thelong line to get into the building for the view from the top so we kept going to
Greektown. It covers several blocks and at one end has a small sample of Greek architecture for a welcoming symbol.
We found
Costas' at the corner of Van Buren and Halsted.
Robert ordered their Satyrion Combination Plate - pastichio - macaroni & meat sauce covered with bechamel sauce, Moussakas, spinach cheese pie, dolmades, gyros platter. What a lot of good food.
Braised Lamb with fresh artichokes for me.
After we shared a bread pudding (I ate before thinking about taking a picture) we walked into the cafe/pastry shops nearby. Too bad we were full. What gorgeous choices.
