The sunset at Oia was pretty, but honestly, we didn't see what all of the fuss was about.
To escape the crowd leaving I ducked into a few shops and asked some locals where to find good lamb chop (or as they say 'lamp chop'). They all sent us to Thomas's Grill. The food was really tasty and the service amazing. We told them it was Chris's "ikio ke eksi yenaythlia" (26th birthday) and they got excited for us. They gave us free fried cheese and Chris a double shot of 0uzo.
I snuck away and was going to ask them to stick the candle I had brought into a piece of bread do I could use the icing I had to decorate it like a cake. They said "no, no. We go to store for cake and we make music and big party!"
After we were done and expecting "to loghariazmos" (the bill) they brought us all a round of ouzo - OPA! Then we thought they were trying to close because the music went off and then the lights went out. Next thing we know the CD starts singing "happy birthday to you..." and they come out with a whole marble cake with whipped cream and a lit candle and everything.
It was so awesome! Talk about memorable! They didn't charge us for the ouzo or cake either!
Its early here and now we're off to Naxos for another adventure!
