Greek?

There is every nationality of food available in El Paso. JoyAnna had been seeing a Greek place she wanted to try. She had Greek food while she was visting the Hussmanns over Christmas. She talked Dean into tonight. We pulled up at the one she had seen. I have to describe it for you. Remember the old timey motor inns? The ones where you drive up to the door? This one was U shaped and had an office in the center. The office now houses a beauty shop. The right end might have been a cafe, but I am thinking maybe it was just a couple of rooms that have been converted to a restuarant. The opposite side is home to a palm reader.

The restuarant had about 6 tables covered in beautiful blue fabric with gold embroidery. This was completely encased with plastic.

There were shelves around the walls that were filled with all types of middle eastern products such as food and henna for hair and for skin.

We were not sure exactly what to order so we asked the nice young man who waited on us. I think his parents own the place. His dad is from Lybia and mom is from Seria. He suggested something, so we went with that and the gyro platter JoyAnna wanted. The food was ok. JoyAnna loved it. She is already planning to go back.
