La Dive Queen Anne Is Getting Replaced by a New Bar, With Food From Yalla | Eater Seattle

"Stepping up to provide food at the new location, Yalla—the popular Capitol Hill Middle Eastern takeout window run by Taylor Cheney—will launch a new concept under an unrevealed name focused on mezzes (small plates) and desserts, with offerings like Egyptian stuffed falafel, hummus with green chili salsa, batata harra (spicy Lebanese fried potatoes), pickled eggplant, kibbeh and desserts such as mastica and orange blossom mint–flavored ice cream, kunafa and Awami (donuts with rose water syrup); Cheney said the operation will donate the proceeds of a different mezze or dessert to charity each month, beginning with HEAL Palestine." - Harry Cheadle
