You guys have a weird dozen in Chicago .. over here, we adopted the metric system and a dozen is officially 10 pieces now.

7aram 3alaiki, maybe she never heard of the word!

Well, if I was in her place I would check before. You see a dozen is truly a 12 pieces set, but some people consider 13 pieces a dozen, some consider 10 a dozen!

It’s just like the Hot Dog buns dilemma!

So she actually might be a genius for checking this out before getting the Falafel…

She’s smart and she’s beautiful!

Right, did you even figure out why the hot dog buns dilemma exists?

maybe she’s both beautiful and smart! who knows:P but i can tell you for sure, she is beautiful!

lol… I’d like to agree with Firas.. .but it’s the first time in my life that i hear a dozen is a 13 or a 10!

maybe she wears a hijab to cover the big hole in her head.

fyi, a baker’s dozen has 13.
one for tasting.

and a fresh, warm piece of falafel sounds really good right now.

It’s not that stupid…i think i would ask how many are in a dozen and wink and say “o mishan el 7ilween” hoping he will say 15….or just to make sure it’s not 10 in a dozen ..because you know what ..i have paid $3.99 for 4 pieces of falafel in this state …do you think they will have a problem jacking me with a 10 piece dozen???!!

I go to a middle-eastern place last week and get a mazzeh sampler (menue indicates for 2 people)…they put only falafeltain on the damn sa7en!!! yes they were double the size of a regular falafeleh but it had a whole in it !!
