Haha! I almost went there tonight. Then I discovered the Water Park Cafe was open for the season, and since I'd heard great things about its shawarma but had not yet made it there when it was open, I decided to go for it. Very good and the best example of the thinner wrap-style shawarma (on laffa) I've had yet, although I prefer the thicker hollowed-out-pita-style exemplified by Max's Deli up in Wheaton.
Enjoy your dinner at Jaleo! Don't forget that next Saturday, the European embassies are having their open house. I visited several of the non-European embassies today and had a blast.
