Description
When asked for a brunch recommendation, we often suggest Tanoreen. The Middle Eastern menu offers traditional Levantine breakfasts like vegetable fritters, hummus with meat, and fool madamas-tender fava beans dressed with olive oil, lemon, and garlic. Also brunchworthy are two dozen hot and cold mezes, including a pungent olive spread flavored with capers, the dried Armenian sausage sojuk, and sambousek-little braided turnovers filled with potatoes and peas and served with a homemade cilantro pesto sauce. Sandwiches, grilled meats, and desserts broaden the culinary terrain. And don't miss the Arabic coffee, ceremoniously served in a shiny brass pot.
