9 Great Middle Eastern Markets In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation

"Middle East Best Food might sound like Google keywords, but they will also lead you to this tiny market on Coral Way. The Palestinian shop is run by a single man who makes a chicken shawarma wrap covered in a seasoning called “parsley chicken shawarma” that’s available for purchase and should be spread on all your future chickens. There are only two tables, so it's better for takeout and some grocery shopping while you wait for your food. Browse through Palestinian canned pickles, dry herbs, or that shiny hookah you secretly always wanted. But if you come on a day when it’s empty, you should sit, have lunch, and listen to the owner’s life story for an hour. While you’re there, order all five flavors of his housemade baklava lady fingers (our favorite is cashew nut)." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer
