A Movable Feast? My Big Fat Greek Wedding? or eating across Greece!

    No foodie am I...I actually like McDonald's...but did we eat.  Anna is a foodie and as proprietor of the world famous Gardens of Salonica Restaurant in SE Minneapolis she saw that we were well fed. We'd find ourselves in some Greek location and agree on a time to meet for dinner...often after 8:00 p.m....and, at the appointed time, she'd lead us off to place to eat, usually where we'd eat outside and very often a place familiar to her.
    Meals were family style.  Anna would do the ordering, in Greek of course, with much discussion of the method of preparation.  As we sipped our wine, beer, or gin and tonics the appetizers would appear...bread, fried cheese, olives, egg plant,  etc., soon more plates came, three orders of everything to share between the nine of us, often salads.
    After eating about five or six wonderful foods, and, just as I was thinking "what a wonderful  meal" more food would come...such as goat, lamb, beef, chicken, fish, lobster, or sausage...or more than one of these.
   What did I learn?  That Greek food is wonderful, even eggplant, Greek ripe olives are terrific and that it's fun to have someone else do the ordering.  Sharing it all with others, both long term and new friends, made it taste even better.
    Jane J. author of the blog jwkjohnson3.wordpress.com took pictures of most of the food and she gives great descriptions which I cannot replicate.
