Tameesa
Saudi
A glass-fronted kitchen lets you watch the bread come out of the tandoor oven, which is reason enough to arrive early at this bright, slightly retro Hijazi breakfast spot. The menu is built for sharing, with fermented fava puree, moutabbal, and mutabbaq as the main event. Finish with a bowl of sweet areeka. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the portions are the kind that make the price feel almost unreasonable in your favor.
