Among the many Brooklyn middle-eastern take out heavens, this one stands the ground of its own. A tiny seating space accommodates about 10 to 15 customers right alongside the kitchen, giving the place a homey feel. I usually go with a simple green salad – presence of artichokes and fresh feta making it a special. D and I took my parents there, and while everyone went with lam and chicken I opted for a tuna wrap. Despite the generic name, my meal didn’t disappoint – the fish was spiced and flavorful and my first course of lentil soup warm and tasty enough to put our whole family in a good mood. Our sprits, further lifted by two bottles of wine purchased at the nearby Smith and Vine, called for a finishing touch of baklava. The place is BYOB which makes it not only a delightful, but also a cheap eat.

Lydia and I came here for a night cap after our recent Brooklyn escapade. Lydia was lured in by the sounds of live music. I was lured in purely by the sighting of alcohol. Though in the past I was always quick to make fun of Bar Tabac for its overly hipster-like patrons, this time I immediately appreciated the friendly staff, the fun atmosphere and the special attention that we got from the bartender.
