Noon O Kabab

Just tried some chow at Noon O Kabab today, Noon O Kabab is south of Lawrence on Kedzie.

Hummus - just ok, not near as good as other places

Caspian Eggplant - mix of sweet eggplant, tomato, onion and garlic, topped with Persian shallots and yogurt - this was good

Baba Ghannouj - not near as smokey as I like

Also had the ground beef and ground chicken kababs over rice that had lentils, raisins, carmalized onions, saffron and Persian boisen berry. The rice mixture was excellent, the ground meat kababs were very so-so.

Overall the two places restaurants listed above have far more flavor than Noon O Kabab
