"Known for its lamb haneeth that’s slow-cooked for hours, Yemen Cafe is a New York City institution. The setup is as casual as a cafeteria, with families hanging out with platters of kebabs, and servers passing around hubcap-sized Yemeni flatbreads and cups of marag that tastes like the pure liquid essence of lamb. Start with some spice-dusted hummus and baba ghanoush, then move on to a bowl of foul with mashed fava beans and the signature fall-off-the-bone lamb shank." - neha talreja
