Inside Iraq’s American-Themed ABC Restaurant in Erbil, Kurdistan | Eater
"The chain’s original location in Velp began in 2000 after a Dutch restaurateur, inspired by an American Golden Corral, introduced an unabashedly American, all-you-can-eat concept to a small town; it grew rapidly from roughly 150 seats to 750 seats and eight buffet stations, becoming a major local attraction and the template that later inspired the Iraqi franchises." - Fatimah Fadhil
