There's a nice little place that I just recently discovered that's located in Oakland on Centre Ave. [4705 Centre Ave., to be exact]. It's dubbed as a Middle Eastern / Greek food deli. You can eat in or carry out your food. IMHO, I think that the food tastes great [very authentic too]. I haven't tasted anything as good since I was in Santa Cruz at a place called Vasili's. They sell everything from gyros, falafel, spinach pie, to taboulee salad. And, lots of groceries are available too [in addition to the prepared foods I've mentioned]. You can get a 2-item or 3-item meal for about $3-$4, btw. I rarely advocate any place in particular, as I generally don't go to any one place in particular regularly, but I just am in love with the food at this place, hence my $0.02 worth! P.S. If anyone could tell me of any other restaurants in Oakland [closer to the University of Pittsburgh] that serve Middle Eastern fare, please let me know! (It'd be a lot more convenient for me anyhow, at least mid-day.) I know about Ali Baba's, but they're a little too pricey for me -- even though their food is great... Lee
