Galit
Chicago, US
The cosy-cool Galit dining room, with its printed textile banquette, duck egg blue tiles and mid-century styling, evokes warmth from the get-go. Add in Zachary Engel's hospitality and the modern Middle Eastern cuisine and you might never leave. The concept is simple: scan the menu and pick a favourite from each section to craft a tasting menu all of your own. Some dishes are made for sharing, mezze style, as is the custom, and the main event takes place over coals. The origins of the region's cuisine are lifted with clever twists along the way. Labneh is kissed with hyssop and sumac, cinnamon-braised brisket tops hummus, and toasted challah comes with foie gras, black raspberries and tehina. Meanwhile, the iconic smoked turkey shawarma is joined by zhoug, lovage, kohlrabi and spring onions for the ultimate spicy, savoury and earthy hit.
