DM> From: entrpoop@access1.digex.net (Dexter Medley) DM> I'll second all your comments except for the Amphora desserts. IMO, DM> Amphora desserts are fabulous only if your idea of fabulous is DM> "anything with six inches of synthetic whipped cream on top". That DM> seems to be a common failing of many of the diners around DC. Yeah. When I worked next door, I'd occasionally be forced by circumstances to have dinner there. The Greek version of lasagna is horrible, but most of the rest of their food is pretty decent. If you order things that taste good after they've simmered on the stove all day, like pot roast and stews, you can eat extremely well there. But the desserts don't have any flavor, they're just inflated with NO2 or CO2. It's one of the worst places I've ever been for desserts. My recollection (this may no longer be true) is that I even had to specifically tell them not to top a chocolate shake or malted with two inches of plasticky whipped cream.
