Aren't you all lucky? You should look at my shared reading and read about Zaatar.

We had a Lebanese restaurant here that closed (he was supposed to be moving), but their mezza and other food was amazing! Mezza was 18 small dishes which changed every night. It was supposed to be an appetizer, but we ate it as dinner! Usually had hummus, tabbouli, falafel, feta, olives, great veggie dishes and ususally two small round baked pitas with zaatar! I loved it and would ask him for it when it didn't come. Our friends joked that we drove farther for food than anyone else they knew.

Someone in their comments on Zucchini and Chocolate mentions Penzey's. One of these days, I am making a trip down to the Galleria in search of this spice mecca. We got some of their spices for our wedding, but I am excited to go down to their store and wander. It is a miracle that Dallas actually got one, as we are the capital of chain restaurants in the US. Don't get me started about that issue!
