The best beef schwarma in town for 300 fils (1 USD) ?!?! I can’t beleive it either but at this Lebanese style eatery, you can believe the hype.  A meal will set you back about 1KD ($3.50).  In fact, everything is delicious here.  Though this restaurant can be considered fast food, it is fast slow food:  fresh ingredients made into meals when ordered.  If a French crepe and an Indian Paratha had a child in Lebanon, you would have this bread.  Thin, chewy and flexible, this wrap is the perfect vessel for the hot and cold, oily and fresh ingredients that make up these sandwiches.  Also, this bread is made fresh throughout the day in front of a window for passerbys to see and drool.

Excellent tabouleh made fresh

The schwarma, falafel, and kebab are very good.  So good that I have been eating here almost every day.  Hommous and tabouleh are also worth getting.  I have a new mission to find kebab and schwarma this good in the states.  Wash it all down with a tall glass of lime-ade and you’re in paradise.
