A legendary hole-in-the-wall inside the shuk serving slow-cooked Sephardic and Kurdish Jewish dishes that have been simmering since early morning. The hamin (slow-cooked stew), stuffed vegetables, and kubbeh soup are extraordinary. Arrive early — they sell out by early afternoon and close when the food is gone. Cash only, communal tables, and zero pretension.
