Celebrate
with an authentic Greek dinner at 52 Vanderbilt Avenue!
You may ask yourself, WOW!
Where did Peachy Deegan find such amazing lamb chops and I was wondering when she was going to talk about this specific dinner!?!
Well, Peachy only eats them at Ammos because NOBODY DOES IT BETTER!
If you for some reason have not read our other 31,000 posts, you should be aware that we absolutely do not edit pictures ever! They look exactly this spectacular in real life.
Of course, you can order whatever your little heart desires from the menu for your own authentic Greek dinner, and we suggest the Lamb Chops, called Paidakia in the Greek language.
Founder and Owner Dimitris Nakos is an Athens native and was born to bring Greek cuisine to you!
Grilled rack of lamb is king of the mountain over giant beans and onions and sports a lovely parsley garnish.
Singing backup are the double threats of deliciousness ready to volley some tantalizing tastes to your palate: Sauteed Spinach with Garlic, and Garlic Mashed Potatoes made that much better with a perfect sprinkling of Feta cheese on top to bring out extra goodness in Greek cuisine!
Goldvine Lantides Cabernet Sauvignon, also sourced directly from Greece, seal the deal on this majestic carnivorous dinner endeavor! It is the perfect pairing with the lamb and say cheers in Greek with Dimitris and Peachy:
