A nice night out

introverte and I made it back to Chattanooga for the first time in a long while. Chattanooga, you may recall, is an upscale kosher Persian restaurant in Great Neck NY (two blocks from the LIRR station, if this tempts any of my Manhattan readers :-)
The gondi was a little less melt-in-your-mouth than it has been in the past, but the Moroccan cigars were nice and spicy, the complimentary stew over crispy rice was great, the combination platter (kabobs of chicken, steak, and spicy ground chicken) with shirin pollo (sweet rice with orange rind and berries) was awesome. [Every once in a while, I think this blog channels the spirit of

And it was nice to have a quiet, relaxed two-hour dinner with my wife, in a restaurant that outstrips anything available to us back home. And with free babysitting. :-)
