Hanar - Review - Peckham - London - The Infatuation
"You’ll find Hanar in one of the arches around Peckham Rye and, although it doesn’t exactly require a hand-drawn map, there’s still something pleasingly IYKYK-feeling about this casual Kurdish restaurant. With trinkets, textures, foliage, and the general aura of incense, it’s a conversavatory-feeling spot where groups come to kick back and devour pretty much every dip going. Like Yada’s around the corner, it feels pleasingly unpretentious. Nobody cares about the plastic school chairs they’re sitting on when the warm flatbread and the pistachio hummus are this satisfying. Herbaceous falafels are halved, crunchy spinach kubba is attacked between two, and house wine is knocked back like there’s no tomorrow. It may look a little makeshift, but Hanar knows what it’s doing. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Pause Unmute Food Rundown Meat Mezze Platter Hanar's vegetarian options are very good, but this chicken shawarma-filled bowl adds a layer of juicy fat to the equation. There's still plenty of freshness and crunch involved, thanks to a cucumber and tomato salad and the occasional explosion of pomegranate. Prepare a bib and load a bit of everything onto flatbread. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Jake Missing
