   Armenian Gourmet in Sunnyvale, CA.  I suspect that Afgani cuisine
   is similar to former Soviet Central Asia.  Numerous Afgani
   places on the SF peninsula.  Egyptian restaurant also in Sunnyvale,
   as well as a Nepalese place.  Have you checked those off.

   There is a Tibetan restaurant in Bloomington, Indiana, The Snow
   Leopard.
