"Said to be the first Kurdish restaurant to open in the U.S. back in 1997,Babani’sis housed in a gulag-blocky, Dunder Mifflin–esque office building. It’s not hip by any stretch, but the food is transportive. I live for the kubey brinj—crispy fried rice dumplings stuffed with ground beef, minced onions, and walnuts. But no meal is complete without pillowy Kurdish bread and a steaming bowl of dowjic: yogurty, lemony chicken soup for the soul." - ByAshlea Halpern
