cafe le claire

one of my all time favorite dining place - cafe le claire - a middle eastern cafe which serves good and simple fare. at reasonable prices too. my personal recommendation: the hummus with pita bread. at only $3.90, its a gem. order their basket of wedges to go with the hummus and this can easily be supper for 4 ppl.

went with cuifen and daniel the other time --> cuifen and I shared the Crispy Chicken
served with mushroom sauce, wedges or rice. daniel had the mixed sausages. the hibiscus tea is worth trying, it's rather special. and some other great things to try on the menu - shish kebab (the rice is great, but the wedges are the best i've had, so its kinda hard to choose - go for the rice, then order the basket of wedges.. haha best of both worlds..won't be able to finish though)and Ba’mia (which is okra and lamb stew with rice or bread). if you just want to fill your tummy without spending too much, the sharwama (lamb and beef rolled in Arabic Bread)is worth taking a whack at. Priced at $6.50, it's cheap and makes up for a filling meal.
