Food that's good for you that actually TASTES good? Aladdin's is the brainchild of owner Fady Chamoun. Drawing on his expertise in Middle Eastern cuisine, he realized that he could tap into the growing concerns of diners who shun chemicals, preservatives, and additives of any sort by presenting them with the natural foods of his homeland as an alternative. Judging from the bustling word of mouth business that's developed, his theory was dead on. Read the creed on the front and you have the Aladdin's concept in a nutshell: It simply states the intention is to provide customers with the unique natural foods of the Middle East while at the same time cater to their increased awareness and concern regarding health and nutrition...read further and you'll discover that no sulfites or preservatives of any type are used in preparation, that most everything is made from scratch on the premises and that only unprocessed sugar is used as a sweetener. Every effort is made on a daily basis to use only the freshest ingredients available which no doubt accounts for the "whole food" feel of the menu. Descriptions of soups, appetizers, salads, specialties, pitas and "pitzas" let you know from the start that this is not a meat potatoes kind of place.
