We recently stopped by Gorgeous George’s on the way home for a busy day at work. Gorgeous George’s is a Mediterranean restaurant in Greenwood. It’s a bright, tiny space, with the tables crammed together and not nearly enough staff working (at least on the night we were there). But what a delight! The food is [...]
