Hey I need to clarify! I always call it Little Persia, but on the outside it is actually Kabob International. I don't know why they have two names and Little Persia is so much cuter! I TOTALLY MISS CASPIAN!!

LOVE this place. I've even asked the cook about the hummus--apparently she soaks the beans for 3 days.

The gentleman who runs the market is very nice too. And they have a great selection of cheeses!

Sara - that's so funny because you crossed my mind this past weekend. I was watching the food network and Andrew Zimmern did a show about Minnesota and "hot dishes" was one of the things he mentioned. It reminded me of the "hot dish" - "casserole" debate on one of your posts.

Oh my God. I think every post of your's that I...

Oh my God. I think every post of your's that I read about food makes my mouth water. Yum. Yum. Yum.

Can you tell I'm sitting here in my office starving?

Kembree,
Thanks very much for the recommendations. I love middle eastern food and will definitley try Little Persia. I have been to Petra and really liked it and need to get back there. I miss Caspian.

Megan,
Yes, we are quite the quirky bunch!

I've always wanted to try that place. Looks pretty good!

I find it hilarious that all of us call anything past Parkway "out East."

OOH, if you like Middle Eastern Food, I can recommend a few places out here in Cordova..#1 Little Persia (more Persian and my fave!), Canooun and Petra (which also has an East Memphis location). But the service at Little Persia cannot be beat, they will 'know' you the second time you walk in the door! :)

The food looks delicious. You are right about that area being weird. Like your new photo of YOU.

I need to try Edo, I've heard so many good things about it. I drive "out east" a lot, I just like the map. Goofball, I know:)

Yum! Edo is right there near Charlie's too, an often forgotten about sushi place. Hands down the most authentic one in town, too. It's always fun to try new places. No matter how many minutes you have to drive to get there! :)
