    Most halal and kosher meat isn't even halal or kosher. Usually what happens is two old retired men one Jewish and one Muslim just sit in a meat packing factory and talk all day and that's their license to say it's kosher or halal. Or Muslim prayers are played. Either way the procedure is the same stun gun and kill. In the end nobody knows the difference.

    The way the animal is killed certainly matters to people who care (I don't).

    It's very easy to find out where your meat is coming from. Ask the butcher who supplies their animals, there's only a handful of proper halal/kosher purveyors around.

    I can only tell the difference in meat if it's factory raised vs natural farm raised and grass fed.

    But kosher/halal vs "unblessed" makes no difference at all if they're all factory raised animals

    Kosher and Halal meat has always tasted MUCH better to me. I have weird sense of taste with meat though.

    Chicken and lamb over rice is the way to go.

    Looks like the grand opening for the Houston location is on January 30th according to their FB page.

    I guess they're also letting people try before the grand opening through UberEats.
