Description

Fabricated from pita dough, the baby pizzas are spectacular, luscious four-slice pies that shoot from the brick oven bearing Middle Eastern toppings ranging from pine nuts to ikawi cheese to zaatar, an herbal cousin of marjoram and thyme. The flat crispy falafel and colorful vegetable selections-like string beans stewed with tomatoes, olive-dotted vinegar potato salad, and spicy carrots, to name just three-are similarly commendable, and so are the miniature pies called sambusek, but beware the grilled meat selections, which are often reheated or served just plain tepid.
