I wish they had opened at the start of the summer as takeout from Sababa would make an excellent picnic.

What a wonderful idea! And by far the best picnic season here is October and November. Excellent!

I squeaked in there just before closing time on Monday night and had a couple pitas, cigars and fries. Like you said, lots of different spices and tastes in there.
Afterwards I noticed that Greg had either given me a discount or undercharged me.
Thanks alot!
In any event, we'll be back again for more. :)

Delicious falafel pita, but doesn't taste so good when you can't get any because the place is closed. :s

it's not by choice I'd imagine. neighbors can get downright ornery about businesses staying open. bongo's is closed by 10:00, again, I'd venture, not by design. citizen cain has been putting up with near nightly visits from the police. they even have a shooter special based on the visits.

seems like the good alley people of taibei don't like you rambuncious furrigners stirring up trouble.

hey, greg, tomer....what about just keeping a take-out window opened until, say, 10:30? give us working stiffs a chance to dine on your fine fare more often? we could promise to phone orders in so's we don't loiter and thereby, disturb the peace whilst your staff prepares THE BEST FOOD IN Taiwan.

And what's with the closed on Sunday rule :( I took a bunch of friends there only to be staring at a closed shop, the lady across kept telling us her beef noodle soup was great but we passed. Btw the curry potatoes place nearby is crap, avoid it.

Dunno. I was there just before lunch today and it looked to me very much like a small restaurant. The food is outstanding, and I've never been bothered by any of the customers one way or another.

Are you looking for a gay hangout? I think there is a gay forum over on the Ho! ... you could probably inquire there.
As it is, we seem to regard it as a positive objection to a reasoner that he has taken one side or the other. We regard it (in other words) as a positive objection to a reasoner that he has contrived to reach the object of his reasoning. We call a man a bigot or a slave of dogma because he is a thinker who has thought thoroughly and to a definite end.
