Cafe provides elegant ambience From page 28 but the serving was just too gen- erous. The prawns, at least eight, came with roast potatoes and rice and a good quality Greek salad made up of tomatoes, cucumber, feta cheese and only a sprinkling of the chopped white onions that so often serve as overpowering Greek salad filler. Desserts beckoned: Bougatsa ($2.75), Baclava ($2.50), Creme Caramel ($2.50), Italian Ice Cream ($2.50), but these hogs was filled to bustin’. Saki’s continues the 22nd Street and Marine Drive tradition of good hearty homecooking initiated by Hildie’s Cafe and revitalized by the 22nd Street Cafe.
