There’s a Greek restaurant that Scott and I regularly go to. I would go all the time if he agreed to it. It’s so good. They have authentic Greek food and olive oil on the table that’s damn near green. There hasn’t been one thing on the menu I disliked and they serve Greek green beans with almost every entree.
They aren’t like any green beans I’ve ever had before and they’re so, so good. Stewed, soft, dill-y and delicious.

Just out of curiosity, what Greek restaurant are you referring to in your article? I’m just curious, because I’m Greek.
You may also want to try the same recipe, and substitute the green beans for green peas! You’d be amazed!
Great idea! And it’s called Parthenon.
One of my favorite sides ever! This would be so good with lamb!
