Mombar
Description
Once you arrive, you’ll immediately notice Mombar’s mosaicked facade. Step inside, and you’ll feel like you’re in someone’s quirky home. Chef-owner Mustafa El Sayed thoughtfully prepares Egyptian dishes like chicken liver, vegetable tagine and lamb shank with couscous. Chef Mustafa comes by most tables to walk through the menu; pay attention to what he says the day’s specials are. This is the place to go when you’re in the mood for a slow, home-style meal. Make sure to bring cash—and a bottle of wine.
