Is there a better patio in the city? Under a canopy of trees, communal tables and an easy breeze make for a surefire summer destination. But even from the inside, it will be easy to fall for this irresistible cooking that roams the Middle East. Sharing is paramount here, though on your own you could make a meal out of the salatim platter, which samples excellent dips like creamy hummus and smoky muhammara, fantastic falafel and grilled pita. Chicken shawarma is a house favorite, but don’t sleep on the grilled lamb kofta, which arrives in a winning pool of green toum and a refreshing mint salad. Indeed, this is food that you can crave and eat regularly. During the day, stop by the next-door sister, Schmaltz Appetizing, for a classic bagel and lox."Middle Eastern, Cozy"
