Holiday memory — Harissa that transported me back

I first ate Harissa on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the rich from slow-cooked lamb quality I remembered. pomegranate was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.

Armenia claims the world's oldest winery dating to 4100 BC and has a deep wine-making heritage. It was the a traditional home holiday table memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. Armenian brandy was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
