What's a Greek neighborhood without a Greek restaurant?

Roslindale is probably the Greekest Boston neighborhood, so David Harris wonders: Why doesn't it have any Greek restaurants?

Unless, of course, you count the Roslindale House of Pizza (or My Big Fat Greek Pizza just over the line in Forest Hills).

Apollonia is pretty close. It's Albanian, but at least that's a border country!

True! And I think it may have been a Greek cafe or bakery or something before it became Apollonia (from the outside, it sure looks like a Greek place).

Roslindale's an Albanian neighborhood, too - long term, maybe more so than Greek, at least based on the number of Albanian kids at my daughter's elementary school.

I wonder how long before we get our first Brazilian restaurant - there are now at least a couple of stores on or near Belgrade Avenue catering to Brazilians. Uh, oh, now I want to go to one of those Brazilian meat restaurants!
