Bring a group to this Yemeni restaurant, because every meal is a feast. Massive rounds of tandoori bread accompany hummus heaped with sautéed lamb liver and bubbling stews such as tomatoey saltah with potato and okra. Other great bets for the table: shafout, a dish of spongy injera-like bread soaked in herb-laced yogurt, and fall-off-the-bone lamb haneeth served over spiced rice with frizzled onions. To finish, share the pizza-size bint al sahn, a flaky, layered pancake drizzled with honey.
