Best Raw Meat For Lunch
Kibbi at St. Raymond's
There are some days when you just feel like gnawing on some raw meat for your lunch. If you're lucky, your peculiar craving will occur on a Wednesday, when the volunteers at St. Raymond's Maronite Church, just south of the Ralston-soon-to-be-Nestle complex on Chouteau, lay out an amazing cafeteria-style spread of Lebanese delicacies for lunch. One of these is the kibbi nayeh, freshly ground beef mixed with cracked wheat and perfect with a nice flatbread. (Of course, if you're not into this kind of cow sushi, a cooked version called the kibbi aras is also available, along with a couple dozen other items.)
