Miss Iggy's Big Fat Greek Dinner

Miss Iggy's been to Greece before, and last September 2009, she went to Chicago's Greektown.

She found herself in Artopolis Bakery and Cafe, located on 306 South Halsted St. "Artos" is Greek for bread and "polis" means town, but they offer so much more than just bread!

Exhibit A: Artopolis' Frutti Di Mare, or the salad which transformed Fortuitous Faery into the "Face That Lunched A Thousand Shrimps." For $11.75, you get this oceanic delight of "Rock Shrimp, Octopus and Calamari, marinated in olive oil-lemon and minced garlic, on a Mediterranean salad."

Apropos for Lent, don't you think? But a bit luxurious, so it defeats the sacrifice.
