Perhaps I will. But my wife and I are Lebanese and North African, and I’m here to tell you that unless the dude fired himself and his wife, it’s a gross caricature of what Lebanese food should be. The only thing he had going for him, last I was there, was that we could speak to each other in Arabic.

Hemingway’s. Mexican Villa. Black Sheep. That Lebanese Place is just fucking disgusting. El Charro is a joke unless you’re there for cheap margaritas. El Primos is so-so. Nakato is gross and just a shoddy show bar. Springfield Family Restaurant, if it’s still open. Bonus: Piccolo in Nixa unless you like a pound of sugar in your spaghetti sauce. Otherwise it’s alright.

Nothing about this comment surprises me. And if that’s evenly slightly accurate, nothing about hearing that’s what they believe, given the insane Christian propensity of lunatic rhetoric of this area, surprises me either. You could tell me James fucking River believes that it was actually Jesus’s teeth, specifically, who died on the cross for the sins of humanity and that’s why Billy Gail’s has 193 egg omelettes WITH a short stack on the side and I would 100% believe that to be the reason why that’s even offered on their menu in the first place. Slight sarcasm. Mostly fucking fact.
