The menus are almost the same, but CPC has renamed the items. Some of the employees are the same as CPOG.
It's a regular lunch stop for us. The pizzas in a bowl are too complicated/rich/hard-to-carry-out for an office stop, but we love their salads, especially the Greek salad. It's a little inconsistent in the freshness and quality of ingredients -- sometimes you're picking out too many wilty or brown pieces of iceburg lettuce -- but when it's on, it's ON.
As an aside, the feta in the Greek salad is Bulgarian sheep feta, which has to be the creamiest, best-tasting feta I've had in a long, long time. CPC has offered to order me a tub, but with a quantity like that, I would have to pass out most of it. I've tried Athens Grocery in Greektown, but their Bulgarian Feta isn't the same. I think I'll have to order the tub around Christmas or Easter when there are plenty of Greeks in my house to hand out to.
