Tabouli

Moving to a new neighborhood affords me the opportunity to try new restaurants nearby. So, for lunch today I went a couple blocks from home to try this Middle Eastern Restaurant called 'Tabouli'. I had heard great things about it and noticed a lunch special that was too good to pass up, so I dipped in for a taste.

Once inside, I noticed how clean and well kept the restaurant was; already a good sign by any standards. At the counter, the clerk was very friendly and helpful and I decided upon the Chicken Schwarma for lunch. I sat down and within five minutes I had the warm plate brought out to me. It smelled great and the lunch special came with salad, rice, pita, and hummus to top it all off. The first bite into the chicken had my stomach thanking me for my choice. The white meat was oh-so tender and flavorful, not to mention warm and very fresh. I gobbled down half the meal, and before I knew it I was quite full. I packed the remainder of the food to go, which I thought would make a great snack later in the day.

At $6.00 for the entire meal, I will definitely be back for more. If you're ever in Washington Heights and are at a lost for a place to eat, check out 'Toubouli' at 3915 Broadway and 164 Street. You will not be disappointed.
