Sunday Lunch in Englewood

[ALANBF]

Any ideas for a "non dinner" type lunch in or around Englewood.

Plenty of 'em. For starters, along Palisades Ave from west to east:

Ruthie Mae's- I haven't been there yet, but have definitely been meaning to get some of that smothered fried chicken and waffles from the Amy Ruth's group. Next time I'm in Englewood I'm there.

Saigon R makes a mean pho. Dunno if it's open on Sunday or not.

El Paso- a little Mexican fonda that serves tortas, tacos, that sort of thing. The chorizo and egg torta was my old standby when I worked in town, but the thing that they do that really kills is called Alambres, and was always good for a splurge. It is a mix of chorizo, bacon and beef cooked on the flat top with onions, peppers and cheese, served with avacado and a stack of tortillas.

Blue Moon- nice but unexceptional Tex Mex type of place with the exception of what they call their Full Moon chili, which rocks. It is the cubed beef/no beans style.

It's Greek to Me- nothing truly great, but a reliable Greek place. I really do like the grilled feta appetizer, though.

S&S Kosher- really good corned beef.

Bennie's (Lebanese)- pick of the litter, imo, really great stuff across the board. A mezze sampler (get the spicy eggplant if they have it) with one of their schwarma is probably the best lunch in town.
