We had a great time at Carthage Cafe, out in Chicago's North Park neighborhood, where we sampled some Tunisian cuisine during Ramadan. This is apparently the only place in Chicago serving food from Tunisia and has been greeted with delight by foodies.

After our meal, Leah, Dick and I had a swell time driving along in the Mobile Recording Studio as we discussed the meal, the concept of Ramadan, fasting of various kinds, and the difference between couscous, Raisin Bran and Grape-Nuts -- the latter affectionately referred to by some as "butt bombs."

Also note that as we're driving through Uptown (one of those Chicago neighborhoods struggling to go from dicey to pricey), some drunk bangs on the window. And this is just in Part 1. Posting tomorrow: Part 2!
