"Everyone who eats at Yamany Corner, a warm and inviting Yemeni restaurant in Paddington, will be given a complimentary bowl of hot maraq to start. It’s a clear, yellowish, brothy lamb soup with a deep, meaty flavour that starts the meal as it should go on: with meat as the focus. The tender chicken mandi arrives golden and glistening, with a lemon that you should absolutely squeeze over it. And the lamb mandi is nicely browned and perfectly pink inside when you pull it apart. It’s worth ordering the aubergine muttabal too, an excellent smoky aubergine starter. The dining room is often filled with families having a casual weekend dinner, or friends who strolled in randomly after seeing the warm orange glow from outside. And that’s exactly how you should use it: for a casual dinner when you want to feel taken care of. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Rianne Shlebak
