Description

The chicken shawarma sandwich is the best in town-fresh cut from the homemade rotating cylinder, jammed in a pocketless pita with lettuce, tomatoes, sumac-dusted onions, and a powerful garlic sauce. With the surprise addition of split cornichons, it's then rolled in butcher paper and zapped in a Cuban-style sandwich press. This Middle Eastern lunch counter-cum-market-where you can get replacement supplies for your hookah, in addition to staple groceries-also features rotisserie chicken and spinach cooked with pine nuts and mujadara, and rice tossed with lentils and frizzled onions.
