Kansas City Mid-East Restaurant Reviews

We were at City Market today, also known as River Market. It's an outdoor bazaar-style city block with lots of different ethnic and yuppie restaurants, shoppes, and fruit stands. In the summer, the local farmers, mennonites, flower growers, all come and sell their wares under open canopies.
Had lunch today at the mid-east restaurant. Very nice combo plate with hummus, baba ganoush, tabouli, dolma, falafel, rice&pinenuts, and a cucumber/pepper/tomato salad. AND....of course....pita wedges.
Interesting atmosphere....cement floors, loud arabic music playing, minnaret shapes cut into the table legs, and navajo blankets and pillows on the banquets! An interesting eclectic mix, to be sure.
The restaurant is connected to a market where you can get all kinds of mid-east exotics: grains, spices, yogurt products, strange delicacies and unidentified pickled things. Great place to browse around.
