Greeks own a lot of restaurants in Fort Wayne. Only a couple are
Greek-cuisine Restaurants. The others serve American food. My favorite place
to eat here is one of the Greek-owned places. The family that owns it works
hard and makes incredibly good food, and the prices are good. Its too bad
their own country is such a bad place to live and work. You see the same
thing here with immigrants from Mexico, India, and a lot of other places.
Smart, hard working people who were forced by poverty and sometimes corrupt
government to leave and set up shop elsewhere. Problem is, I think the USA
is headed for the same fate.
