CHICAGO (WLS) Shawarma stands selling falafel, kabobs and other Middle Eastern dishes are all over the region. But our Hungry Hound says a locally-owned concept - with locations in Skokie and the West Loop - differentiates itself, by hand-stacking their shawarma each day into giant cones that are cooked slowly.
When you focus on Middle Eastern food, you better have plenty of parsley.
The team at Crave Kabob, which has locations in both Skokie and West Loop, are busy every morning prepping and stacking. We make everything here. We make a little bit of everything. We make falafel, we make kabobs, shawarma, said Manager Husam Ahmad.

The People s Republik is the latest Cambridge institution to permanently close its doors as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
After temporarily closing Dec. 4, owner Robert Blair confirmed to the Boston Globe he s shuttering the Soviet-themed bar for good after 23 years of business.
A rite of passage for transient university students and a staple for longtime locals, People s Republik served as a simultaneous reminder of Cambridge s universality and singularity.
With an unmistakably bold red and yellow exterior, the bar s closure will leave a hole in the city s mosaic. Locally owned businesses are so central to our sense of self. Their closure, I think, has threatened our sense of cultural identity, said Theo Skeadas, executive director of Cambridge Local First.

When the
New York Times and the
Washington Post wanted Iran explained to them, they turned to Kaveh Afrasiabi. So did at least one member of Congress who is only listed as “Congressman-1” in the FBI’s application for Afrasiabi’s arrest as a foreign agent of Iran. Afrasiabi had started out as Howard Zinn’s teaching assistant. The notorious Communist revisionist historian was the Iranian immigrant’s dissertation adviser. “My first exposure to Zinn was in his graduate class on Marxism and anarchism,” Afrasiabi wrote in a tribute at
The Nation. Zinn had gushed, I admire Afrasiabi for his courage.
