Cheap Eats 2005

By Annamaria Pardini

The folks at this Italian pizzeria meets Lebanese cafe (formerly the Long Island) have taken diversity to heart, and you'll love them for it. Perfectly crisp-crusted pizzas, from slices ($2.50-$2.75) to whole pies ($9.95 and up), share the menu with outstanding Lebanese picks. The vegetarian mezza platter ($8) is loaded with creamy hummus, baba ghanouj, stuffed grape leaves, crunchy falafel and tabbouleh. Meat mezza ($9.95) includes the above, plus buttery chicken shawarma and allspice-scented beef kafta. (AP)
