Meh, us 'mericans would just say chicken wrap. We ain't down with the fancy names.

I know its Arab, which is the problem. If you want to sell that here in 'middle america' you don't call it by its real name. Either say its Greek food or a Chicken Wrap. Middle Eastern food isn't popular around here for the reasons I am implying. If they are only 'affluent' or 'liberals' eat it (the stereotype anyway).

There's food in Vancouver that I swear I can't find here. First this isn't a mecca for Greek food and there's only two Korean places and 3 or so Indian places. Then again this is area is little Mexico, little Italy and Irish themed pubs.

  No the 'intellectual' food or 'in' food is Afghan and Ethopian. Early 90s when the city was stayed alive because of the Bosnian wars. Bosnian was king in the 'intellectual' department. Seriously, this city needs to have a park, a monument, and name a neighbourhood after Molosvic and other beligrents. There actions saved this city. It actually grew in population during the 90s. lol

LOL. Um I love how things get off on a curve here on DS.

  Im still calling it a falafel. If my puny brain can remember that far back it even said that on the menu. Dont make me go there to prove it!

  Ok, im not getting anything at all accomplished this afternoon. Its pretty bad.. I drove my buddy to the airport and filled up my Tahoe with fuel (i had to swipe my CC twice!). Oh and I cleaned up some garbage from last night.

  I think Starfish is going to kill me, lol.

  I gots my 100 dollars of my money back today in the mail.. I wonder how much it cost to print and send to every person in BC? At least they are attempting to keep Canada Post people here working I guess.

  Im with Lise on Conan...

  It was a good weekend Van.. how did your friends over go? Is that 'lady friend' you are talking about that hot waitress?

  SD, I think it's all much simpler than all that.  It isn't there, most likely because the population of such ethnicity's probably isn't there.  Could it be that simple ?

  (intellectual food ?....lol)  I can picture a restaurant with a sign on the door.....'No Idiots Allowed'

Oops....I'm a little slow.  I think I just said basically the same thing Michel said.

  Russ....falafel is supposed to be a little patty made out of chick peas and spices.  Yummmmmy.  I usually eat them in a pita with tahini.

  Like these little guys....

 I think they kinda covered that with the 'no shirt, no shoes, no service'. Or at least hope they did.

  If it makes you feel better SD.. theres not alot of mexican food around here. I can think of only two mexican restaurants that are semi authentic.
