More on Decatur….superlative chicken shawarma - generously packed into a tortilla-thin flat bread, with pickle spears and lots of toum (the heavenly, fluffy garlic sauce), grilled on a press.

This one from @lebanongrillnola , which keeps a low profile, but opens to a dining room done like a Middle Eastern bazaar with a pizza oven for kafta pizzas (and a full bar).

It’s another find ahead of @defenddecatur this coming Sunday (May 24).

Defend Decatur is a self-guided day out to bring some business to a string of shops, restaurants and bars that really need it — those contending with the slow going infrastructure work that has blocked off their streets — but not their doors.

It should be a nice, very New Orleans sidewalk only block party.!

In some Decatur dining rooms and bars I’ve visited, a handful of customers could change the trajectory of the day - so don’t think a visit won’t make an impact.
