"A falafel operation transplanted from Aleppo that serves heart-shaped falafel with tarator (creamy tahini with sumac) and pickles made in an Aleppan style, while also offering regional variants such as a Sudanese-style shatta and bright amba (tangy mango pickle). Its menu exemplifies the culinary hybridity spreading Syrian flavors across Istanbul and helping integrate those tastes into the city’s broader food landscape." - J. Cary
