"A few options from chef Robert Curtis’s Turkish tavern menu — hummus, carrot haydari, zhug, and pomegranate-glazed short ribs — are available on Neighborhood Restaurant Group’s new online delivery platform, Neighborhood Provisions." - Gabe Hiatt
"Executive chef Robert Curtis celebrates “Mardi Foie” with a full-blown foie gras menu takeover at his typically Turkish-leaning spot in Shaw. Think grilled foie gras with ras el hanout and apple butter or gnocchi with foie ragout and sheep tomme. A “Foie Feast” that evening includes whole roasted foie spiced with baharat. There’s even a foie-washed Rob Roy." - Tierney Plumb
"The $14 tartare at this Neighborhood Restaurant Group standout has personality to it. It’s punched up with a Turkish coffee vinaigrette, pickled cucumber and za’tar seasoning." - Missy Frederick

"When Hazel launched its new menu under chef Robert Curtis towards the end of 2018, the menu took a turn from its Asian inspired dishes to vegetable focused items typically found a Turkish meyhane, or neighborhood tavern. Puffy Turkish bread serves as the vehicle for the dips and spreads that are followed by more modern interpretations. Some dishes, such as the carrot haydari and muhammara dips, the mucver pancakes, and bulgur kofte are obviously Turkish. Others, such as the beef tartare that comes with a Turkish coffee vinaigrette, reflect Curtis’s inventions." - Aparna Krishnamoorthy
