| - A hidden gem in the Cultural District. This place is packed with a line out the door by 11:45 and can be intimidating for rookies. There is no posted menu- but Josh (owner) will guide you through.
Diners form a crazy line and shout out chicken salad, cold plate, hot plate, etc. and then proceed down the aisle of fresh, healthy, and delicious side options. I go for the hot chicken plate with "wheat rice." This includes a heaping portion of their special salad (iceberg lettuce, oil, vinegar, and spices), rice, and chicken. Then comes the fun part- adding everything from hummus, to grape leaves, to tabouli. All of this in a big (full) square styrofoam container, perfect to take next door to a little park area. If you have never been, say so! Often the staff will create a yummy sampler that will have you coming back.
The down side- cash only and crazy line. However, the staff is friendly, the food is amazing, and prices can't be beat.
Unfortunately, they will soon be moving. Come and get it while you can and follow them to their new spot TBD.
