Chicago Gyros - and Dogs


Tuesday 21 May
We were going to a play called "Momus and Aphrodite" (you can see why two classicists might be interested) at the Cincinnati Playwrights' Cooperative.  So rather than going back home from the office, we chose to have a quick meal at Chicago Gyros - and Dogs - on the way.
The gyro was as we remembered it, but without the side of chips, as they now have a fryolator for French fries in their new location.  We also split an Italian combo of Chicago hot beef, an Italian sausage (with perceptible fennel), grilled onions, and peppers, on something called a Gonnella roll, dipped.  It was spicy, fast, and filling, which was just fine.
Down at the Aronoff center, the whole audience (except us) seemed to be related to each other, or at least in the community theater movement.  As for the play, it started as a morality tale, and ended as a sitcom.
"Momus, you got some 'splainin' to do!"
