By Lorraine Caputo

At Jerusalem Express, Lebanese-born Ibraham and his Colombian wife have introduced Valduparenses to healthy Middle Eastern cuisine. They prepare everything from quibbes, fatayer (meat or chicken turnovers), malfuf (stuffed cabbage leaves) and parra (stuffed grape leaves)($0.35-1.55) to stuffed eggplant, cucumber or sweet pepper ($2.65) and beef or chicken shwarma ($3.20-3.70). Of course, vegetarians, there’s plenty on the menu for you, like spinach fatayer, garbanzo or eggplant tahini and falafel shwarma. Can’t make up your mind? Order the combo plate ($5.30). The final touch is a small bite of an Arabian dessert ($1.05). Open daily 4:30-11 p.m.
