I had Pork Pad Thai (half of which G took to sleep-away camp as a late night
snack) and Georgia had a pork chop and fried egg over rice thing ending in
"biet" which I have had before ... she liked it as well as I had in past. Which
is a good thing since I recommended it.

  Bulgur gives a nutty texture to spicy lamb burgers; pita
  rounds sop up the flavorful juice.
  
  Soak bulgur for burgers:
  
  Pour boiling-hot water over bulgur with 1/2 teaspoon salt
  in a small bowl and soak 15 minutes, then drain in a sieve.
  
  Make sauce while bulgur soaks:
  
  Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt (1/8 teaspoon)
  using a large heavy knife, then transfer to a food processor
  and blend with remaining sauce ingredients until smooth.
  Transfer to a bowl.
  
  Prepare burgers: Preheat broiler.
  
  Pulse onion and herbs in cleaned processor until finely
  chopped, then transfer to a bowl and stir in bulgur, lamb,
  paprika, allspice, pepper, cayenne, and remaining 1/4 ts
  salt until just combined. Form lamb mixture into 4 patties
  (4 inches in diameter).
  
  Broil pitas and burgers:
  
  Arrange pitas on a baking sheet. Brush with oil, then lightly
  dust with paprika and season with pepper. Broil on lowest
  rack until toasted, 1 to 3 minutes (watch to prevent burning).
  Keep pitas warm, loosely covered with foil, while broiling
  burgers.
  
  Oil rack of a broiler pan and heat 4 inches from heat until
  hot, 3 to 5 minutes.
  
  Broil burgers, turning over once, until cooked through, 5
  to 7 minutes total. Serve burgers on pitas, topped with sauce.
  
  Active time: 25 min
