Restaurants

New intimate small plates resty in lil india that offers a unique creative american menu and honest food made with love. Def my fave kind of food. Highlights: firecracker pork pasta with habanero sauce & sour cream, clams in fig broth, grilled octopus on squid ink & salted egg sauce. Portions are really morsels-ish and food comes out slowly but oh so delish!

At Ottoman Kebab, you're in the good hands of head chef Ali Kose - a Turkish native and the former sous chef at Gordon Ramsay's Michelin-starred restaurant, Maze. A telling sign of a good Turkish restaurant is the Homous, which Ottoman has nailed. Gratifyingly creamy with a balance of tahini, lime juice and garlic, mop it all up with the pillowy homemade Pide Flat Bread. Go for the Iskender Mutton Kebab: minced mutton patties grilled and slathered with a rich sauce of sundried tomatoes, celery, carrots, shallots and dried mint. Don't leave without trying the wildly popular Kunefe - a sweet and buttery pastry filled with goat's cheese, drizzled with sugar syrup, and topped with crushed pistachios.
