421 S. Glassell St., Orange, CA
Description:
A favorite of students, professors and local business folk since 1977. Brothers Mahmoud Haidar and Mustafa Hassan continue to sling out creamy hummus, fluffy rice, juicy kabobs and comforting casseroles at astonishing prices. Daily specials range from $6 to $7 and include soup or salad. Or you can order a sandwich - spicy potato or shawarma, for instance - for $5 tops.
If you find yourself with a little extra cash, don't think twice about ordering a beguiling dessert of sweet pudding on a thin layer of drenched bread tasting of milk and honey they call, appropriately enough, "heaven."
