An Aegean Treat, April 13, 2004 - 12:18 PM
Reviewer: Jerry Lipsius from Clifton Springs, NY (near Rochester, NY)
I never tasted any shrimp dish better than this one! It was easy to prepare, looked good, and delightful to eat. The only change I would make is to use 4 ounces of Feta cheese rather than 8.
