I'm not as keen on some of the other dishes but really like this one!! They've cut back a little like many restaurants, hurting in this cut-back economy, doesn't stop me from going. Usually when I go in, I'm one of very few lunchtime customers. Don't go to the horrible place nearby on the SW corner of intersection... one of the worst meals ever there last fall!Analog Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-22106585156262878632009-12-29T19:01:13.727-06:002009-12-29T19:01:13.727-06:00thanks for scanning the menu- very helpful ( I wis...thanks for scanning the menu- very helpful ( I wish they would at least get a basic website)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-89048541549110288172009-07-08T18:08:29.264-05:002009-07-08T18:08:29.264-05:00I'll never understand the resto business.

They bragged on it the second time I went there so the third time I tried it. Dry, dense institutional patty that I think was nuked because it did not have a grilled flavor like their kabobs. It made a Regal Ranch burger look good, if you remember them. I almost took it back it was so bad. Unless it was their bid to get rid of a gringo, I would pass on the burger and stick to the rest of the menu.JimHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-27919975059053700602009-07-08T15:57:05.313-05:002009-07-08T15:57:05.313-05:00??

That Krispy Krunchy place ?? - I tried the chicken there once; it had been under the heat lamp way too long (and the tacos fixings looked similarly time worn).<br /><br />I know the Houston Kashruth Association provides a list of certified Kosher restaurants, butchers, bakers, etc. I wonder if there is such a list for Halal?<br /><br />All I have found is zabihah.com which offers comments such as 'verbal assurance of staff' and 'owners are known Muslims.' Only a few listings have 'Halal certificate on display.'<br /><br />Next time I'm in the mood for a burger, I'm thinking I may try the Halal burger and fries at Cafe Yasmeen (they have a banner in the window).Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689118444867837021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855897705208332617.post-66679023720186801762009-07-08T07:24:08.248-05:002009-07-08T07:24:08.248-05:00Speaking of Halal, I noticed that the chicken plac...Speaking of Halal, I noticed that the chicken place inside the gas station at West Bellfort and 59 now serves Halal Chicken.Ziggy Smogdusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12601727588265529970noreply@blogger.com
