Ali's Kabab Cafe on No Reservations

There was chatter here and there about Tony Bourdain coming to town to eat at Ali's Kabab Cafe as part of his No Reservations show on the Travel Channel. A number of people said they thought they saw him on the streets of Astoria, but they weren't sure. Well, he ate at Ali's and loved it! Ali cooked him a bunch of offal, not my cup of tea, but it sure impressed Tony Bourdain. Here's the video - enjoy!

ok, so i am super glad about Ali getting the fame he deserves but dangit! i have a feeling he's going the way of the beer garden... i waited for a half hour outside behind another couple and still couldn't get in! and of course all the while people were talking about seeing him on tv. ugh. he even had 2 people on staff tonight, crowded indeed. So i popped in and warned him i will be coming back tomorrow EARLY- to which he responded "Come tomorrow early bambina- you know i love ya!"
i love you too you big lug!
