Meeting Place
 


GIG of Greater Dallas DINING CLUB

We had a spectacular time eating at Komali’s Authentic Mexican Restaurant at our November event.  Don’t miss the next one or you will miss out.  I can recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting a unique Mexican Cuisine. 

Abraham Salum is the chef and owner of Salum and Komali restaurants. In the  past few years he noticed that the amount of people with gluten  intolerance has grown and they can accommodate them every single time.

Abraham opened Komali Contemporary Mexican in February of  this year, it is authentic Mexican cuisine, and because they use corn  flour instead of wheat 90% of their menu can be eaten by someone with  gluten intolerance. The y are offering a happy hour at Komali with complimentary hors  o'deuvres. This way they can give everyone a taste of what they do and  let people know that there is a new option in town and that they will  take care of their dietary needs.
4152 Cole Avenue Dallas, TX 75204-8245 (214) 252-0200.
