Holiday memory — Malabi that transported me back

I first ate Malabi on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the bright and fresh with herbs quality I remembered. tahini was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.

Shabbat and holiday meals follow religious traditions that shape the food served. It was the a Carmel Market street stall memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. mint lemonade was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
