    Middle Eastern

    On a Brooklyn corner, siblings and their chef have opened a spirited spot where the line forms before service even begins. House-made pita arrives hot for labneh and hummus spiked with wagyu beef cheeks, while golden-fried rakkakat stuffed with akkawi cheese arrives with the confidence of a dish that knows what it is. It's Middle Eastern cooking that doesn't whisper.
