A Guide to the Middle Eastern Restaurants in Chicago’s Southwest Suburbs

"Saj is a street-food well loved in Bilad al-Sham, consisting of a flatbread folded over into a half-moon shape that can be served with a variety of fillings. Baba Saj offers everything from labneh with olives to halal mortadella; school-kid classics. Maybe their best is the muhammara saj, made with tomatoes bursting out of the saj itself, is juicy and satisfying. Other offerings include different mana’eesh varieties, shawerma, and msakhan — a flatbread topped with stewed onions, sumac and chicken which the Palestinian city of Tulkaram is particularly well-known for. The Harlem Avenue location is technically in Palos Hills. There’s also a drive-thru and another location in Oak Lawn." - N.A. Mansour
