A

Specialty Trays For All Occasions

Fendi combination tray for three
or more has beef shish kabob,
chicken kabob, beef kafta, gus,
fried shrimp and is served with
rice and stew ($13.95 per person).
Many vegetarian customers
make La Fendi a second home
because of its large array of meat-
less dishes ... Over 150 orders of
falafel ($5.95) in vegetable oil are
served weekly ... Almost 300
preparations of vegetarian grape
leaves ($6.95) are dished out each
week.
People who enjoy spicy food
can have what no other Middle
Eastern restaurant hereabouts
has, La Fendi Matabac, beef ten-
derloin, chicken white meat or
shrimp, all sauteed with toma-
toes, onions, parsley, mixed with
seasoned rice of special spice
blends ($12.95.)
There are even half-orders ...
shish kabob, shish kafta, shawar-
ma (beef or chicken), chicken gus,
chicken kabob, cream chop (beef
or chicken) and chicken kafta
If you just feel like having a ham-
burger or cheeseburger, La Fen-
di has them, too, along with its
own pita burger ... Also beef or
chicken chil-frys sauteed with
onions, green peppers and toma-
toes, and bar-b-q baby back ribs
($7.95 half order, $13.95 whole
order), bar-b-q chicken half,
$6.95, and a rib and chicken com-
bination.
The hours at La Fendi are
most important because it is one
of the very few restaurants with
such late hours...Sunday
through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 1
a.m.; Friday and Saturday, 11
am. to 3 am. ... Because of them,
people come from everywhere, es-
pecially with such an easy-access
location via 1-696.
Food at La Fendi is prepared
hourly ... which says a lot for its
freshness ... Quality is a big
thing and nothing is frozen ...
The meat purveyor comes six
days a week and the produce sup-
plier every other day.
Being heavy on vegetarian and
natural foods is also a trademark
of pride with Tony and Raad.
Waitpersons, male and female,
wear tuxedo accessories and
waitresses must have their hair
back or up ... No tresses hanging
in front or on the sides like at
some places where this unsani-
tary appearance is strangely al-
lowed ... Service is so important
that meetings are conducted
every two weeks...The waitstaff
tells about customer requests and
are told how their guests can best
be satisfied.
Want a non-alcoholic pina co-
lada? ... Strawberry daiquiri? ...
The juice bar at La Fendi is an
example of something Middle
Eastern fathers of yesteryears
never dreamed would someday
be such a rage.
The huge red neon sign that
spells out La Fendi is an impos-
ing one ... But no more impres-

sive than the restaurant itself ...
La Fendi has brought many cus-
tomers back for more ... and with
good reason.
ERRATA, TYPO, Etc. Dept

SO MANY folks like Phyllis
Tyner, Art Shafer and a list of
names that would stretch from
here to who knows where are still
looking for that very elusive hole-
in-one.
Not Dr. Daniel Panush ... He
hit his second ace at Tam
O'Shanter, using a six-iron on the
164-yard second hole... in a
threesome with Mel Raznick and
Bill Elson ... The fine internist
had a hole-in-one five years ago,
also at Tam, on number 11.
