Our take: Peace through pita in Albany Park: Salam wages a delicious war on hunger. Bring a bottle of arak and raise a glass to Middle Eastern harmony.
Wine Pairing: Peace' through pairings: bring a Lebanese Chateau Musar or a crisp Greek Assyrtiko. For red, a fruit-forward Grenache works well.
Beer Pairing: A Middle Eastern lager like Almaza from Lebanon pairs well. For a craft option, try a zaatar-spiced saison or a pomegranate sour ale.
Spirits Pairing: Arak is a traditional choice. Bring a bottle of Arak Brun or Arak Razzouk. For a non-anise option, try a bottle of Lebanese gin like Jun.
