"NYC’s only dedicated Somali restaurant, Safari moved from its original location in the heart of Little Senegal to a corner on St. Nicholas Ave. after a fire. We’re just glad this casual, canteen-like spot reopened, so we can once again get our hands on their excellent plates of hilib ari with yellow rice. The roast goat is supremely well-spiced, and so are other dishes, like their chicken or beef suqaar, and the mango chicken. Everything on the menu is worth trying, and Safari also serves breakfast. Have yours with some cardamom-scented milky chai, or a mango lassi." - neha talreja, hannah albertine, bryan kim, willa moore, sonal shah
