The Best Halal Food in Portland, Oregon | Eater Portland
"This family-owned Beaverton Egyptian and Iraqi restaurant serves an expansive menu that covers classics from both countries. Lamb shanks arrive both as the fall-apart tender, braised quzi ala timman, an Iraqi preparation served over rice, as well as fatta, an Egyptian dish with rice, pita crisps, and garlicky, tomato-y sauce. However, it’s hard to skip yet another preparation of lamb shanks, which caramelizes them with pomegranate molasses and a fragrant blend of saffron and cardamom. The Egyptian-style roast chicken, with beautifully browned skin and a biryani-esque rice laden with raisins and nuts, is another winner. Online ordering is available through Clover and the restaurant features indoor and outdoor seating." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
