"At Albanian joint Alba, the classic kebab platter is $7 for five pieces of Ćevapi (Eastern European minced meat sausages) served with the traditional Ajvar (roasted red pepper sauce), along with a large helping of rice, salad with feta, and bread on the side. It can easily be shared between two people. A bottle of Turkish mineral water Uludağ will help balance the filling meat-centered dishes, as will a post-meal espresso. There’s also an Eastern European grocery mart next store." - Claire Elisabeth
