Before going out with your sweetie, go out with the Boys. If you live in the wondrous Village of Oak Park, you know our dining options are not great. For years, we had one Greek restaurant on Lake of medium caliber. Now, through various reasons, our Village is getting competing Greek restaurants across the street from each other on Lake. The old one, I'm not sure if it's been officially named, but will have, like Agora in its title is still under construction. The new one, in the old space, has been opened a few weeks. So for the sake of science, me and the Boys want to see what's happened.
Friday, February 14th, I'm sure you all are busy. Thursday, February 13th, maybe you have a free night for copious shots of ouzo and crashing plates at Chara in Oak Park. You don't even need to be a Boy to join. Dinner should start around 7, but in the Greek fashion, might not.
