Mamoun's in New Haven, CT makes amazing falafel samiches for like two dollars a pop. A couple of those and a spinach pastry at 2am = crazy delicious! :P

It's funny though, each country takes claim to these regional foods. My Syrian buddy swears and get's pissed if I say it's Lebanese food. hahah funny stuff.
Him: "A gyro isn't Greek or Macedonian, it's Syrian!!"
same goes for Baklava, etc.
haha

Too vague. Very common in most Middle Easten and North African countries. Cheap to make, but delicious. Lived off of them in Egypt.

bagpipes are from somewhere vaguely middle-eastern right enough (far as I understand it). It's hardly a complicated idea...

hmm. the humble yet mighty falafel. I'd say it's most famous in Israel, but probably sprung up about the same time throughout the middle east before travel towards europe and expanding throughout the world. very much like the judeo-christ-islamic religions.
it is the food of Gods afterall.
