Free Lentil Soup & Garlic Sauce or: How to Get Your Arabic Restaurant a 5 Star Rating
When you've lived in the Middle East almost your whole life, and you relocate to a small city where burrito and schnitzel joints abound (seriously they're all on the same street), your eyes will be trained to be on the lookout for any restaurant selling food that has flavour. So when I saw that there was a new Mediterranean grill place in town I alerted my brother as soon as possible and we went to go check it out.

Of course none did because Vandana Shiva is just a human being and not a saint. But what a human being she is.
