Kafta as comfort food — exactly what I needed

Some dishes exist to comfort and Kafta is absolutely in that category.

A dish that tells its story — Kafta reviewed

Honest verdict on Kafta — good but not exceptional

Kafta here was solidly made — bright and balanced without anything to complain about. za'atar was present and handled reasonably.
