     When first entered, Vanak Restaurant does not look like much of a restaurant, but once the pleasant
smells of kabob (烤肉串) hit the senses, you are incapable of calling it anything less.
     Owned by a local couple, this Persian restaurant has an inviting, homelike atmosphere that many
restaurants lack. The space is small with only a few dining tables and nearly no decoration, but the
environment is truly charming. Lying in a hardly noticeable street corner, the restaurant still attracts all
customers, especially those experienced in the delights of Middle Eastern cooking.
     A common sight is that of old Persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly about world topics,
watching news events on TV, drinking a black tea known as Persian chai, reading local Persian
newspapers all the while and trying to finish off their plate piled with food.
     The variety of food at the restaurant is limited, but the amount of each dish is fairly large. Most of the
meals can serve two people and are under $10, so not only is it affordable but practical as well. The
food, especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy, made with limited
fat and oil and served straight off the grill (烤肉架).
     The main dish that the restaurant is popular for is its kabobs, which are different styles of grilled meat. One delicious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob, which is made of grilled chicken pieces
served with either rice or bread. Another great kabob is the Chelo Kabob, a kabob consisting of grilled
beef.
     Although the restaurant is small, the atmosphere and the food is delicious. It is a place that should not

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人称的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁症), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (惩罚 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (摆动) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
