Have you ever had the buffet lunch at Afrah Restaurant and Pastries in Richardson? I’ve loved it since the first time I experienced it several years ago, but it seems to get better and better.

Afrah serves authentic Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine, including their specialty – the shawarma. Similar to a gyro, this traditional Middle Eastern sandwich consists of marinated meat which is shaved off a stacked rotisserie and topped veggies and cucumber sauce. They also offer a lunch buffet where you can enjoy baba ghannouj, salads, tabbouleh, coriander potatoes and more. |More|
