The 8 Best Restaurants on Governors Island - New York - The Infatuation

"If you’re looking for a fuller meal, the Ethiopian and Eritrean spot Makina makes bowls with things like chicken or beef tibs, or garlicky collard greens. But we actually prefer using this spot for a snack, specifically for their sambusa. These little fried dough pockets are stuffed with super flavorful lentils or beef—we like the lentils better—and they’re great fuel before another lap around the island." - will hartman, kenny yang
