Artopita

There's one thing that makes the prospect of an early morning flight out of Midway bearable -- the thought of an Artopita from Pegasus On-the-fly. An Artopita is a tasty breakfast sandwich, fluffy eggs, cheese, and ham, spinach, or mushrooms in a flakey phyllo shell. It's the "Arto"-pita, because Pegasus is the Midway branch of Greektown's Artopolis(306 S Halsted). I've never gone to Artopolis for breakfast -- I'm not sure the Artopita is a delicacy worth driving across town for. But bleary-eyed at Midway at 6:40 am it's a much better way to wake up than McDonald's.
