The Greek Corner is a cute little cafe close to the University. From my experience, the closer to the college means the cheaper the food. This place had good service, nice atmosphere and fair prices with hefty portions. Gyro sandwiches were $5.96, the most expensive salad was $6.95, appetizers were affordable and didn’t go over $6.00. I ordered hommos, for $4.95 and that’s the way it was spelled on the menu. I’ve always seen it spelled hummus but hommos is a little more entertaining to say. It was a little oily but still delicious and came with a pita bread cut into four pieces. The pita bread was good but was hot like it was microwaved rather than hot like it was fresh. There wasn’t enough bread and we had to order more for .75 cents. I didn’t mind because they really gave generous portions of hommos. Yes, hommos is definitely more amusing to say, even if it is pronounce hummus. I prefer homos. The hommos was fantastic but a bit greasy. There’s just so much hommos, don’t you think? Alright, let us move on.

I also ordered a Mixed Plate. It was a nice variety of gyros beef and lamb topped with Tzatzif, (I don’t know what that is either), along with marinated boneless chicken baked in slow fire, and topped with a garlic mayo sauce, served with a Greek salad and pita bread. All for the special price of $10.95. Ray and I shared it and it was more than plenty. Everything was scrumptious. I definitely will be back.

The best thing about this place is not their philly cheese steak sandwiches but that they have free wifi. Not only is it free but it’s also strong enough to steal from the Star Bucks across the street. Fuck Star Bucks for trying to make us pay for T-Moble.

As for the cheese steak sandwiches, I have yet to find out. I ordered the Ono Philly Chicken, Cheese & Mushroom Sandwich. Sandwiches come in three sizes, 7″, 10″ and 16″. Ray and I shared the 10″ for $7.19. All sandwiches come with your choice of cheese, grilled onions and hot or sweet peppers all placed inside an Amoroso roll that’s apparently imported for Philadelphia. We also got a small order of steak fries for $2.19. Ray didn’t want any onions and I gave him most of the mushrooms because I love him and wasn’t really all that hungry. Another great thing about this place is that they are open 24/7. That means after the clubs when your all drunk and incoherent you don’t have to settle for hot dogs any more. If hot dogs with florescent green relish tastes good when your drunk just think how good these babies will taste, fucking incredible.

After we ate, we walked over to Star Bucks and opened up our lap tops. Hey, we’re still paying customers, just not Star Bucks.
