Greektown, Detroit

Went down to Detroit last week for Lin Pei's Canadian visa application. While waiting for her visa to be processed, we went to Greektown for lunch. Didn't know where the good Greek food are, we asked some guy and he recommended Pegasus. It is well-known for their Opa! dish, which is a flamed-cheese dish but we didn't know about that so we didn't get it. It was pretty fun seeing all the flames though. The food was pretty good but it is obvious that most of the stuff were pre-cooked and they just had to heat it up.
We got one of their combination platter - green beans, lamb chop, roast chicken, spanakopita (spinach pie) and rice. Ping was not too impressed with the chicken as it was sort of blend but the green beans was awesome, so is the spinach pie. The rice was not cooked very well either - too much water, but maybe it's because Ping like rice that are more 'liap'.

The other two dishes that we got was Moussaka - layered eggplant, potatoes, and sauteed onions, seasoned with spices - and roast lamb in tomato sauce. They vege dish is good but could definitely make do with less green peas and the eggplant was cooked a little too long. Ping likes the roast lamb the best since Ping don't cook lamb and haven't had it for a while.
Mediterranean food is one of the food that Ping has never had back in M'sia and is pretty well-known here. However, it is also one of the food that Ping won't be able to take everyday just because they have a lot of weird spices. Ping's favorite is their rice with almonds and crispy noodles!
After lunch, we walked over to Astoria pastry before heading back to the Canadian Consulate. There were sooooooo many cute ones we didn't know which one to get. In the end, Ping got the one on the bottom right corner of the picture.
