High hopes.

I love Lebanese food, I love the new downtown Raleigh, I can't wait for this to open. I love the building, you can tell from the outside (driving by) that they've done a great job renovating it, and the thought of a hidden courtyard is fantastic

Not only is the place beautiful, the menu sounds fantastic. I would eat there every damn day.

I know. I'm even game for trying the dish that has turnips. I don't do turnips.

Damn! Now I got a taste for some kefta or kibbe!

[brianrdu]

I'm gonna bail on the kibbeh (I grew up eating that, and I don't do red meat anymore), but this dessert:

Ashta - layers of phyllo dough, milk pudding, bananas, honey and
pistachio.

OH MY.

Of course, I don't know what you are talking about here.
