As long as the food is good and healthy and the prices are reasonable, good.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

I’ve read that they don’t wash their hands properly and in fact use their actual hands as toilet paper.

I never got fat eating hamburgers & fries, but then again I had a high metabolism rate. 8>)

I wonder if OAC and Omar followers know that "Mediterranean Grille" is usually code for Israeli food? Prolly not. They're not the sharpest skewers in the drawer.

I love the stuff. There's a joint called Falafel King near me where I often get take out.

[Lurker]

Did you miss the Hebrew part? I’ve eaten at the original location and it wasn’t bad. I’m not a fan of hummus, though.

Hummous and oil. The only good things to come out of the middle east since Jesus

[Slyfox]

I don't know this chain but is it a Jewish rather than muslin?

I would rather eat kosher than muslin.

We ate ate the original Naf Naf in Naperville, IL, years ago. What I remember most is the old Grandmother in the back making the pita by hand. Loved the place.

[Bullish]

I don't like hummus or falafel or yogurt either. All things you find in ME food.

[be-baw]

I’ll skip the garbanzos and stick with my canned pork and beans.

Their eateries are located mostly in the Midwest. So far, there are none west of the Red River of the North.

[M Kehoe]

Gotta check it out.

Hummus (red pepper garlic), Syrian bread, goat cheese, olives, grilled lamb, cucumbers, olive oil, tabouli...

I just made myself hungry.

[Slyfox]

I know. Muslin is my preferred way to spell that religion.

[Truthoverpower]

Love Falafel

My go to spot is bongo Burger in Berkeley

[dirtboy]

I love good falafels. But they don’t love me. They give me more gas than the Israeli Leviathan gas field.

Yep, it's Jewish.
