Today, I decided that coworker Tim and I needed to check out Le Kabob on Alpine for lunch. I am very happy that we did. This is definitely a first class Halal restaurant.
This particular location has been haunted with short-lived Thai restaurants that were hit or miss. If Le Kabob can keep up this record, it will be all hits.
First, they serve up a free basket of naan and thoom (garlic spread). Tasty first bites.
Then our soups came out. I had the lamb chili which was a very simple chili with kidney beans, ground lamb, and a seasoned broth. Simple but VERY good.
Then the entree. I went with the shish kafta with grilled vegetables. The meat was cooked to perfection, well-seasoned, with the right amount of crisp sear on the outside and soft flavorful meaty goodness on the inside. Everything tasted like it just came off a campfire out back.
Honestly, we were contemplating alerting the ambulance service and sticking around for seconds, thirds, maybe fourths…
If you get into Middle Eastern/Halal food, please PLEASE do yourself a favor and check this place out. This is the type of restaurant that we need to keep around. Awesome small international food establishment.
