It all started with Lebanese Chef Joseph Chemali, with over 50 years of cooking experience. From downtown Beirut, Kuwait, Bahrain, Egypt, and the Lebanese and Jordanian Embassies in Washington, D.C., he mastered the art of Middle Eastern cuisine.

Shemali's Cafe offers typical Middle Eastern and Lebanese fare, such as falafel, shawarma, and kabobs. It's a hidden gem in Foxhall Square Mall with a crowd of devout followers who love its delicious food, reasonable prices, and outstandingly friendly service. If you know it, no need to say more. If you don't, what are you waiting for?!

This gift certificate is good for $25 worth of sandwiches, from the Shemali's menu. Yum!
