It's kind of a cross between french bread and pita bread, with sesame seeds. It can also be described as a variation on the bread served in Indian/Pakistani resaurants. My descriptions won't do it justice, you have to experience it to know. Since you live in Pasadena (or at least used to...), you can go to the Mongolian BBQ on the corner of Rosemead and Colorado Blvd. It's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall kind of place, but they do have a lunch special for about $5 and they do serve the bread I'm talking about there. Hmm...all this talk makes me want to go there the next time I'm in the area. -- Matt
