Brooklyn Suya

African restaurant · Crown Heights

"Suya refers to a peanut-and-chili-based spice mix used on meat skewers, which is popular throughout West Africa and, increasingly, in New York—Brooklyn Suya (717 Franklin Ave.; $9-$20), another excellent Crown Heights takeout counter, opened in 2019. Both the chicken and the steak there were quite juicy one recent afternoon; the salmon, glazed in a peanut-based sauce, better still." - Hannah Goldfield
