A Restaurant Recommendation

Last Saturday, the Saroff posse was looking for some food late at night following an evening at the theater, and casting about on Google Maps, there was a restaurant around the corner, Yemen & Gulf Restaurant at 401 S Broadway Baltimore, MD 21231, on the corner of South Broadway and Bank.

It looked intriguing, particularly since it had a lot of good reviews, and half of them were in Arabic, which considered to be was a good omen.

My instincts on this were correct. This restaurant, which appears to be little more than a hole in the wall next to a cell phone star has exquisite Middle Eastern food, including flat breads that they bake while you wait.

The portions are huge, and the prices are cheap.

The ambiance is non-existent, but even that is a part of the charm.

I love it when you can find little gems, this one a bit rough-cut, where you least expect them.

They don’t have a web page, but the Google Maps link is here.
