I was taking a hiatus from teaching and had just injured my shoulder while working as a punch-list carpenter. I was in a familiar place emotionally, feeling at a dead end about my options for work. That was precisely the time when Mimi Sharpe asked me to be a guest chef at The General Store. Two weeks later we had negotiated my temp position into a full time job. If there ever existed a thing like serendipity or synchronicity or the unviverse giving you something that was wanted or needed….for me that job was it.

My husband and I just visited the Small Street Cafe this morning for breakfast.   We couldn’t be more pleased.    The cafe is homey and inviting, Lisa and Dave are friendly and most importantly — the food is wonderful.   Stop by and see the wonderful new addition to Pittsboro and wish them well.   We are glad we did!   Welcome to Pittsboro and much success.

Subject: Greek Kouzina

A few weeks ago my husband and I decided we should try having lunch at Greek Kouzina on a Sunday after church. Neither of us wanted to go to any of the places we usually go for Sunday lunch when neither of us wants to cook and we don’t have a lot of time, so we decided to give Greek Kouzina a try.

The Greek Kouzina restaurant, is “Healthy, Fresh & Light” just as advertised. 

I ordered the vegetarian platter for dinner tonight.  It was delicious & reasonably priced.  I especially liked the fact that they offered hot tea with my meal.  The music set the romantic Greek mood and the restaurant was exceptionally clean.  The owner Mohammed was attentive & his staff was efficient at connecting me to the internet as well as delivering the food quickly.  The experience was very warm & welcoming.  Check it out yourself.  You will not be disappointed for ambiance, cleanliness & a tasty Greek meal.

I am writing to tell my fellow Chatamites about my experience at Pittsboro’s new restaurant, Greek Kouzina, located at 964 East Street.  I waited to write until after I had been there twice.  

I was positively impressed on both visits.  I had the Kouzina Platter with both chicken and beef.  My daughter had the same platter with lamb and my wife had a Chicken Pita Sandwich.  All of us were impressed with the freshness of the food and the excellent flavor of the seasonings used.
 We really enjoyed the tzatziki sauce and the hummus with the skewered meats.  The salad was fresh with a very good dressing.  I recommend Greek Kouzina highly and hope my fellow Chathamites will give it a try.

Hi y’all,

Since I was one of the complainers about the GSC I wanted to be sure to give a shout out to the new and improved customer service there.  I’ve had dinner there twice in the past month or so and met a friend for coffee, and all three visits have been nothing short of wonderful, the old General Store I used to love.

So thanks to all the GSC folks who are working on making Pittsboro a place we can all love.
