Hungry Magazine #22: It’s All Greek
This week we try something different, with a little reporting piece on the history of greek restaurant staples the Gyro and Flaming Saganaki. Flaming Saganaki, Opa, and the whole theatrical production was invented in Chicago on Halsted St in the 1960’s at the Parthenon. The Parthenon also played a role in popularizing the Gyro in Chicago by giving it away as sort of a free amuse course in the late sixties.
