G’town rent, staff to make food and keep place clean, cost of goods, profit… I can see $9 but how much do you feel it should be? This isn’t the curb in Cairo.

I get the irony of a “peasant’s dish” that’s $2-3 in Cairo being almost $10 here, but that’s kind of a dumb complaint. For DC that’s still a pretty good price point for a meal – and I don’t have to fly all the way to Egypt to get it. Can’t wait to try it out.

Koshary is actually an Egyptian dish: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kushari
