In other news, our favorite restaurant – which I previously wrote about because it was OPEN during Ramadan – has now been shut down by the government! I think it is just closed for Ramadan but it led to some vigorous blogging that boiled down to “the importance of Ramadan and the cultural divide in Amman between traditional and westernized cultures” vs. a “defense of their ‘tourist restaurant’ license to operate and the goal of diversity and tolerance.”
We are sorry they are closed – we appreciate the ambience of the place, as well as the outstanding pancakes.
