I'm a picky connoisseur of Mediterranean fare. I lived in Morocco with the Peace Corps so I know what I want when I order chicken shwarma.
Aida, tucked into a former Taco Bell at Penn and 66th, is a fantastic find for this Mediterranean snob. Not classic Moroccan grub, but a wonderful collection of favorites like hummus, baba ganoush, basmati rice, and Turkish olives. Hot pita bread rounded out the meal and I left satisfied, warmed, and comforted by food that was clearly prepared with care. And to top it all off, the meal below was $9, hard to beat when seeking out deliciousness that doesn't break the bank.
Can't wait to return to this little gem!
