Frommer's Review

The heady smell of spices and barrels full of nuts and other delicacies may have you lingering on the first floor, but before you start loading up with exotica, take the stairs up to the deli. A smiling little man in a white hat will likely be there to greet you. Magazine and newspaper articles plastered all over the place feature photographs of your new friend, the smiling little man with the white cap. Ask for the mujadarra (a traditional Arabian lentil-and-rice dish with caramelized onions, served as a salad or in pita bread), pay $4, and settle in at one of the little windowside tables.
