    Just in case people don't know what kibbeh is:

    Kibbeh or kibbe (also kubbeh) (Arabic: كبة‎, pronounced [ˈkibbeh] or [ˈkubbah]) is a Levantine Arab/Assyrian dish made of burghul and chopped meat. The best-known variety is a torpedo-shaped fried croquette stuffed with minced beef or lamb. Other types of kibbeh may be shaped into balls or patties, and baked or cooked in broth.

    Bread & Olives makes decent kibbeh.
