Easter Brunch
Yes! This is the ONLY Greek Michelin Star restaurant in the country so it is hands down the best place to celebrate Greek Easter. Check out some of their amazing Easter Brunch items you’ll be feasting on. Zambonopita – a crispy puff-pastry stuffed with Virginia smoked ham, green onion, feta, Kasseri and ricotta cheeses and Plevrakia – Slow-cooked pork ribs rubbed with Greek spices, Attiki honey and lemon glaze, sour cherries with ouzo
Chicago
Most Greek restaurants in Chicago have a Midnight menu for those celebrating right after Saturday night’s service. This menu is known to most Greeks and traditionally the restaurants do not advertise it since mainly the Greeks are the ones who attend.

Easter 5-course Lamb Roast Dinner
For Greeks and non-Greeks alike who prefer Sunday dinner instead you must try Taxim. Check out some photos of last year’s Easter 5-course lamb roast dinner. I personally love the photo of Chef David Schneider and his crew working on the grills and souvles.
As a bonus check out David battle Cat Cora on Iron Chef America. The secret ingredient was of course lamb. http://eater.com/archives/2011/04/11/david-schneider-vs-cat-cora-in-iron-chef-battle-leg-of-lamb.php
