12 Best Things to Do in L.A.'s Arts District: The Neighborhood Guide | Condé Nast Traveler

"Ori Menashe and Genevieve Gergis (the masterminds behind Bestia) have done something truly special at Bavel, which turns out food from across the Middle East, from Israel to Tunisia and Yemen. Be sure to order the signature dish: malawach, essentially a Middle Eastern roti, served with grated tomato, dill crème fraîche, soft-boiled egg, and an oh-so-Californian strawberry zhoug. People talk a lot about the meaty dishes, but we love the mushroom skewers just as much. Don't leave without dipping into the silken hummus with duck nduja—and some of Gergis' desserts, of course." - Krista Simmons
