The owner sidles up with a heartfelt hello. You tear into your Frisbee-sized pita as a rush of steam escapes the pocket of hot bread and rises into the air above the table. The vegetarian mezza platter ($9.50) does right by your old favorites—creamy hummus, crisp falafel—before the fatayr ($7.50) arrives in all of its odd, pizza-by-way-of-meatloaf glory, and you are happy, and does life get any better? Yes. The lamb shawarma ($9.50) touches down and you wonder if Habibi might be interested in adopting a ridiculously stuffed adult.
