I have such fond memories of visiting "Lam's Garden" restaurant when my children were young (now adults) and the wonderful experiences we had there. I haven't found another similar restaurant that fills their shoes. This reflects on the beautiful Lam family and the admirable people they are.

Yurt Ho Leung Lam raised wonderful hat-working children. They are devoted to each other and to each other’s success. What a contribution to Athens your family has been. Rest in peace.
