Im obviously kidding....but I want to say that I really hate whoever posted a photo in this thread. Living in Greece, I dont get the foods I was accustom to when I lived in South Florida. I miss my Chinese food, my Italian, and even some of my fast food spots. There is some good foreign restaurants in Athens, but I live 2 hours away, and I dont feel like spending 70€ on gas and tolls just to eat some sesame chicken.

Tried out a barbecue place I kept driving past during my commute. Got the 2 meat platter with sliced brisket, pulled pork, fries, and barbecue beans. Also got a cornbread muffin to try out. Sadly, the only good portion was the brisket, it was tender and moist with a great smoke flavor. Everything else was excessively dry, like it had been cooked earlier in the day and reheated. The worst part was the price: $16.95. Definitely won't be going back.
