Looking for the perfect dish to complement your view of crystal-blue water and sunny skies?
May I suggest Aris’ Harbor Light’s gyro salad? It features ingredients so fresh that, during my recent trip to the lakeside restaurant, I plucked each one out to savor it separately: the lip-smacking crunch of cucumber; the firm but juicy thick-cut tomato wedges; the melt-in-your-mouth, warmly seasoned gyro slices. It was the most refreshing meal I could imagine on a sweltering afternoon.
But you don’t have to take my word for it. This time of year, you can just ask any boater in the area.
“Last Saturday we had 27 boats parked outside!” said owner Aris Sklavenitis, nodding toward the water.
