St. Louis Coffee Oasis & Mediterranean Café

Where else can you get your turtle mocha latte and a chicken kebab with a side of lebni (a thick yogurt-based dip topped with a pool of olive oil)? Only at Coffee Oasis, courtesy of husband-and-wife proprietors Belal and Qamar al-Ramahi. The Jordanian couple offer standard Mediterranean options like gyros and hummus, spinach pie and falafel. But there's also an audacious Arabic Breakfast Plate (falafel, feta, kalamata olives, cukes, tomatoes and the aforementioned lebni), plus specials like kibbeh (ground meat, bulgur and onions pummeled into a paste). Save room for the delicious desserts.
