Family dinner

Three generations of Tally-hos gathered for a family dinner at Floga Bistro on a recent Saturday and had a great time.
The Tally-ho patriarch raves about the chicken parmigiana, so I ordered it this time, and he was right. My brother had the wonderful spaghetti aglio olio (garlic, olive oil and Pecorino), which I've ordered many times before. Prices are reasonable, and the portions are large enough that most of us took home doggie bags. 
There was one vegetarian in our group, and we made sure there were menu choices for her (she ended up ordering a small pizza). Another young family member ordered mussels, which allowed Tilda to order him to spell both the shellfish and the biceps type (even at the end of summer vacation, he still got them right!).
Our poor waitress had a broken hand but still managed to clear our whole party's dishes in one armload. And the genial chef came out after dinner and visited our table for a bit.
Floga is between Kennett and Longwood Gardens, on the south side of Baltimore Pike, in the Genuardi's shopping center.
