Man, now I'm getting hungry!
I'm usually crawling around there really late at night, so it's Baghdad Kabab or George's Grill Kabab for me, both of which are 24-hour. They're both pretty good but George's Grill Kabab is an unrepentant hole in the wall while Baghdad Kabab has a more up-market pretension. Which one I eat at depends on my mood since they're both pretty good and they're priced about the same. Haven't had much chance to try the places open during more conventional hours, but Noon-O Kabab is one of the better-known Middle Eastern restaurants in the city. I believe it's actually George's brother who owns and operates George's Grill Kabab while George now operates George Pita Kebob right around the corner. Kinda small-town-ish.

Venture a little farther west to Kimball and try Taco Chino near Kimball and Lawrence sometime. Last time I was there they didn't have the Korean tacos on the menu but you just have to ask - Kimchi, Bulgogi, Korean chicken and beef. Very tasty. Plus all the standards you'd expect at an Albany Park taco shop.

Kimchi tastes like rotten feet. I don't want a rotten feet taco.

I had Baghdad kabob last night.

In addition to good food, the waitress/order taking girl had a bangin' body.


Apparently, the kabobs are pretty much standard between George's, Noon-O, and Baghdad. They all look and taste the same to me.


I do like how Baghdad Kabob has the cous-cous/potato thing stuffed with ground beef and other awesome flavors.

Was it the dark-haired Russian girl? She's pretty smokin'.

I had to ask her where she's from because her hair/complexion didn't match her accent. I've never seen a Russian girl who looked so Mediterranean.

She is very short with a dark complexion and hair. I think she's got a stud nose ring too.
