"Should someone add the smoldering scent of this Lebanese charcoal chicken joint to the National Heritage List for the impact it’s had on the popular consciousness? A random sample of commuters coming out of Granville Station might say yes. Many people have been sidetracked by this smoky aroma since 1998, when Andre and Carole Estephan opened El Jannah’s original shop. Its garlic sauce, chicken, and chips have created enough demand to command long queues and buzz at interstate outlets. The hot chips roll is a lot of fun. Know before you go: There are now 23 locations throughout the city, so you’re never far from this fast-food phenomenon." - Lee Tran Lam
