I think of shwarma as "interesting convenience food" and not necessarily fine dining. There are two Lebanese Tavernas close enough to me (and with easy parking) so that I go there now and then. For those living in the burbs, going to Adams Morgan is a dining experience, not something I'd do for a quick lunch, since these days I'm almost never in that area for other reasons. Is there a Lebanese Taverna near enough to El Khartoum so that this is a really fair comparison? When it comes to Ethiopan restaurants, I'll make the sweeping generalization (and you know what kind of flames that starts) that the Northern VA restaurants are where the cab drivers go for lunch, whereas the DC restaurants are where families go when they want to eat dinner out. I'm not a greasy spoon sort of guy, and prefer the latter kind of restaurant when I go out to dinner. -- I'm really Mike Rivers (mrivers@d-and-d.com) However, until the spam goes away or Hell freezes over, lots of IP addresses are blocked from this system.
