Possibly - or they may have a "secret" menu for special customers. But, Ali and
his brothers, Hassan and Abdul have been here more than 20 years and they are
businessmen. Ali is skating that fine line between his religious strictures and
what will sell in the Great American Outback. People are here don't look at
Halal the same way they look at Kosher.

Lot of pink monkey syndrome with the hillbillies around here. It sort of helps
to have a fairly major and well-respected medical school here and one of the
top cardio places (Prairie Cariovascular). People are (finally) getting used to
exotic sounding names on people in a number of trades - doctor, lawyer,
merchant chief as it were. Especially doctor.
