"Co-founder and Creative Director Samantha Wasser, of by CHLOE. and The Sosta, opened this fast-casual eatery late last month in partnership with chef and Top Chef Canada host Eden Grinshpan. The broadly Middle Eastern menu (featuring salads, pitas, bowls and mezes recommended with freshly-baked flatbreads) offers Instagram-worthy versions of your favorite street cart food. Dishes include beet hummus bowls with crispy eggplant, and sumac fattoush with basil, mint, baby kale, Persian cucumbers, fennel, and watermelon radish in a honey lemon sumac vinaigrette. Specialty items include halva toast, honey rose pancakes and orange blossom yogurt. For those with food allergies, the menu includes a detailed, nut-specific allergen key." - Marguerite Imbert
