The immediately apparent difference between this and all the other Greek salads in town is that it's served in a bowl made by hollowing out a big round French bread load. (If you get the entree Greek salad; there's also a side version, served conventionally.) My wife and I like this so much that were automatically split one of them on every visit. That's if I can talk her out of a portion of the salad, which she loves. All the ingredients are here: olives, peperoncini, green onions, feta cheese, a smooth, light Greek dressing, fresh greens. A near-perfect light lunch. MapleSt-DR2
