UPDATED - Arab Food in Chiville
Ok ... so we haven't chatted about food in a while (Uppercut must be busy) ... so I'm wondering where do you get the best Arab food in the Chicago area? Something akin to La Shish in Detroit (which is the standard as far as I'm concerned).
It doesn't have to be a beautiful place ... it just has to have great tasting food ... my preference - Chicken Shish Tawook (Lebanese / Syrian style) ...
Suggestions? Bring'em on ... I'm hungry ...

try sindbad as well.. in lincoln park... not very authentic.. but good stuff nonetheless.
the hummous chicken @ pita house in des plaines is awesome..
I've come to the conclusion that Al Khaymeih (at the intersection of Kedzie and Lawrence) has some of the best Arab food in town. Everything tastes incredibly good.
pita inn is ok..
rezas has good iranian food.. sheesh tawook is awesome..
i've heard bout nefratiti on lawrence ave.. i went there n they closed it for some private party.. din't bother goin back...
