| - I watched Party Girl over and over again as an impressionable youth until I learned every word to the movie. Ever since, I was inspired to order "a falafel with hot sauce, a side order of Baba Ghanoush and a seltzer" every time I walked pass a Mediterranean restaurant. I have walked passed Tarboosh a multitude of times and decided today to stop in and ask for my regular although it was my first time here.
I was not disappointed. Firstly, I think it's incredibly awesome that I watched him form my chick pea patties before deep frying them. It was the equivalent of watching the chef make home cut fries. And then I loaded it up (except for onions -- seriously, like men, if a vegetable makes me cry, it has no place in my life) with hummus, lettuce, tomato, pickles and pickled turnips (yum!).
Although the restaurant was nicely decorated with a plush couch in one corner to lounge on, I opted to eat outside in the sunshine and was thankful for tables right outside the door.
Next time you are walking by, stop in and enjoy!
