Re: Greek and Lebanese

We have those places here, but they aren't Greek so much as Middle Eastern I thought. Thre is this one Israeli spot on 84th and Amsterdam that has the BEST FALAFEL EVER, AND their pistachio baklava is AWESOME.

Let me give you the rundown...

- grape leaves (veggie)
- falafel
- chicken schwarma
- gyros (with extra cucumber sauce)
- pita chips

There's more, but that's all that's on my mind right now. Does any other area have a lot of these places?

Also, growing up in Detroit, we had A LOT of 24 hour restaurants, called Coney Islands. If you look in the phone book, there were like 100 of them in the city! Now, the only places that are 24 hours are Walgreens, Waffle House and Big Boy...

Can you grub all day and all night where ever you are?
