I like to come here for a quiet lunch, when the only sounds are soft Arabic-language music videos playing on one of the restaurant’s plasma-screens. It’s more rousing in the evening, thanks to a live band that performs nightly, plus actual belly dancers. …… There are more than a dozen other choices, such as makanek, clove-scented sausages sautéed with tomatoes and onions; or sojouk, a spicier version; lahim bei ajin, little meat pies studded with pine nuts (they’re big on pine nuts here); or broiled quail, a pair of whole birds redolent of garlic, lemon juice, olive oil and cilantro, all quite Mediterranean.
