Our Big Fat Greek Meal

Mezé Plate, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

We enjoyed this "little" Mezé plate of spiced olives, tomatoes, and cucumbers at a Greek restaurant in Vancouver's West End neighborhood.  We emphasize the word "little" because the main course portions at this restaurant were enormous!

When asked why the normally healthy Vancouverites would consume such vast quantities, the owner shared that the competing Greek restaurant a few doors down had increased their meal sizes, so they had to keep up.

As an aside, our meals were delicious.  We imagine the homeless folks we gave our left-overs too felt the same way.  The restaurant was kind enough to even include napkins and plastic-ware for them too.
