It's little. It's unassuming. It's got pictures of hummous on the walls.
Kabob House is a little takeout stand that has the usual lineup of popular Middle Eastern specialties-- steak kabobs, chicken kabobs, kifta, falafel, hummous, baba, spinach pies, lentil soup. What keeps me going back is the ultra fresh ingredients and the preparation on a real grill.
I had the kifta combo today-- kifta (ground beef with onions, parsley, tomatoes and spices mixed in, then grilled), rice pilaf and a salad. The kifta was brightly flavorful and juicy- my only complaint is that it was a bit salty. It was accompnied by a skewer of freshly grilled tomatoes and onions. The pilaf had a nice toasty, buttery flavor, but was not greasy in the least. The salad was a simple lettuce, tomato and cucumber mix, lightly dressed with olive oil and lemon juice and topped with pita chips. (Not traditional fattoush-- no sumac--but good). The veggies were all astonishingly fresh.
I've had the steak and chicken kabobs before-- both fresh and juicy. They marinate all their meat, so it's got a great, complex flavor. NB: they are liberal with the onions. Buy Altoids if you have a meeting.
The people who run the place are really nice and accomodating-- you can mix and match your meats in the combo if you feel like it or ask for more salad and no rice! The proprietress and I chat about mujadarah recipes. One can never be too well versed in the art of mujadarah.
