It's all Greek to me

With the Downey Greek Food Festival quickly approaching, I thought it would be timely to share about this new deli in town: To Nostimo ~ Greek Food & Deli. I have passed this several times and finally stopped in this afternoon. Located on Florence Avenue just west of Lakewood, the deli has been open only a few months. The girls behind the counter were gracious and welcoming.
