Ranee!

Please don't go any where; I have burning questions about Saudi (and
other Arabian Gulf countries' recipes). What can you tell me about
Kabsa? Wikipedia says it's the national dish of Saudi Arabia but It's
not in any of my Middle Eastern cookbooks!

We just got a tiny little new restaurant here [Ali Baba]. The owners
are Saudi and Kabsa's the only really Saudi dish on the menu (choice
of chicken or lamb). They have felafel, kibbeh, gyros, etc. I think
they opened it because we have so many Arab college students & grad
students in the area. It's very welcome downtown.

The only other place for middle eastern (prepared) foods is Cafe
Aladdin, owned by two really nice Palestinian brothers named Ahmed
Younis and Younis Younis (I just call him Younis 2) :-)

Salaam aleikum,
