SUMMARY:monthly dinner meetup (incl. Goth & Vampires/Non-Conformists meetup
  groups)
DESCRIPTION:The Atlanta Synthpop Meetup\n\nAs suggested by the Goth Meetup 
 Group\, we're going to Sultan's for dinner this month! Sultan's is a Lebane
 se/Turkish/Mediterranean restaurant that we've been putting off visiting fo
 r a couple of months now. Bring your appetite and be prepared to feast! \n\
 nA review from the AJC: \n\nSultan's offers lavish Lebanese feast Quality e
 qual of quantity at weekday lunch buffet \nDate: March 7\, 2008 Publication
 : The Atlanta Journal-Constitution\n\nPreparing for a trip to Sultan's requ
 ires two things: not just hunger but a completely empty belly. Its lavish l
 unch buffet and expansive dinner menu bring a wealth of options to the tabl
 e. And most prove so delectable it's tough to know when to stop.\n\nSO LONG
  CEDARS\, HELLO SULTAN'S \nFans of the now defunct Cedars near Lenox Square
  were likely crying in their tabouli when it closed recently. Its amazing b
 uffet was an all-you-can-eat dream with heaps of salad\, loads of kebabs an
 d stacks of sweets that never failed to please. But owner Nassar Samad also
  helm's Sultan's\, an adventure in Lebanese and Turkish cuisine that keeps 
 the magic alive.\n\nBUFFET BLISS \nSultan's weekday lunch buffet draws big.
  Customers line up and grab plates and bowls for one serious glutton fest. 
 The slight tang and soothing warmth of the lentil soup with Lebanese spices
  and onions makes it a must-grab.\n\nGuest scoop spoonfuls from a mound of 
 hummus\, a smooth array of chickpeas\, olive oil\, tahini sauce\, garlic an
 d zesty lemon juice. A fantastic\, tangles mess of rice pilaf sits nearby.\
 n\nDon't miss the amazing smoked eggplant and the wonderful falafel. The la
 tter are deep-fried veggie bean patties that welcome a dousing of tahini sa
 uce. Small zucchini casings stuffed with meat and rice come off like bullet
 s of comfort. And a saucy bin of cylinder-shaped meatballs\, known as kafta
 \, beg for seconds.\n\nMake sure and save room for the flaky and sweet bakl
 ava that sits on the dessert table. Wash it all down with a glass of aryan\
 , a Turkish yogurt drink\, or a high-octane helping of Turkish coffee.\n\nO
 FF THE MENU \nDon't quite have the capacity for the buffet? Guests can orde
 r off the menu at lunch and dinner. The popular fried kibbey comes to life 
 with seasoned ground beef\, pine nuts and onions stuffed into deep-fried wh
 eat shells. Vegetarians can find refuge in the mezza platter\, a sampler wi
 th humus\, tabouli\, falafel\, baba ganouj\, grape leaves and olives. Pita 
 wrap platters come with fried potatoes and tabouli on the side. Diners choo
 se from either kafta\, falafel\, shawarma\, chicken and fried vegetables.\n
 \nAt dinner\, a wide variety of combination platters hit the menu. These in
 clude kafta wrapped with eggplant and a side of rice\, chicken and beef keb
 abs with sides of rice\, hummus and tabouli and much more. A return visit m
 ay call for a No. 4\, which comes with chicken and kafta kebabs\, fried pot
 atoes and garlic dip.\n\nDinner also offers Sultan's specials such as the f
 ish of the day seasoned with herbs\, garlic\, lemon juice and cilantro sauc
 e. Fried potatoes come on the side. And for those who can't decide on which
  kebab to choose\, the kebab platter lets guests pick their choice of three
