"The lamb shank from Brothers doesn’t need much help falling off the bone. Its proximity to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium means that collapsing is in its very DNA. But, the vital point of difference between these two destinations in N17, is that this Somali restaurant is actually worth travelling to. The duubi and bariis, or lamb shank and rice, are both fragrantly spiced, mixing star anise, turmeric, and cinnamon with melt-in-your-mouth fat. Throwing some basbaas—a sharp Somali chilli sauce—into the mix alongside some flatbread is a must." - heidi lauth beasley
