"When he would observe the holiday in Palestine, Silmi would break his fast with a date, a glass of milk, and a cup of coffee. He says he’d then go for a few hours of prayer, but there aren't many late-night options for the proverbial date and milk for those who opt to break fast right away in San Francisco. “Cafe Greco in North Beach used to be the spot,” Silmi says of places he would break fast once upon a time." - Paolo Bicchieri
