TW/CW: Takeout only…read more Somerville. Home of overpriced, over-fancy, Americanized restaurants - and this one hidden gem. Good luck finding parking in downtown Somerville, but since we had good luck with that, I was optimistic we would have good luck with finding food. Walking around the historic cars that love to show off every Friday on Main Street (we learned), we walked down the pedestrian-only Division Street and got here. And I said "hmm - it had nice Yelp reviews, but I wasn't expecting a tiny takeout-only place." So we kept looking. But got drawn back here. Thanks, Dad! This is a little Egyptian eatery owned and staffed by none other than Mo himself. Here you will find a small menu of classic, authentic Mediterranean/Middle East foods that you would find in Cairo. While they were sold out of the dessert I wanted to try, the Hawawshiiii struck me as a must-eat. My dad got the classic chicken kebab sandwich. I offer the following: * Everyone's beaten me to the punch on the amazing portion size you get for the amazing price. * Everyone's beaten me to the punch on how amazing the food tastes. I devoured my hawawshiii and my dad's leftovers. The pita was so soft and fresh that his sandwich was wrapped in. I sopped up my creamy hummus side with it. * During peak period, expect a 20 minute wait for your order. But you've got peak Somerville to explore. On Fridays at 7, live music sets up so we enjoyed some music and poked into a couple of other stores to eat up the time. Not bad at all. I hope Mo Grill makes it and can expand into a full restaurant. I would love to see them succeed going forward, a most deserving and meritous owner who treats his customers with kindness, caring, and the best Egyptian food you may ever have.

Walked around division Street which has a ton of good options and needed something for me and my…read moreson. Having been to Mo's before I knew it would be good. It wouldn't take terribly long. We went in and ordered the beef shawarma. Waited less than 10 minutes and we're off to having a great lunch. The guy who helped us was super friendly. He didn't mind my questions and the indecisiveness of a small child. The place is small inside and has signs up that you cannot eat in there. I have a feeling that has to be the town saying that since you could totally like two people sit front And eat a quick lunch. Minimalistic inside before a place that doesn't allow eat and dining. It makes a lot of sense. All in all I would come here again. I think the food is pretty good.

Korean supermarket @ Belle Mead, NJ The market is as big as…read moreHmart in Edison, NJ but cleaner and less crowded. I usually come Friday to Sunday after reviewing their weekend sale flyer on the website. I usually do not buy banchan and Korean rice cake from Hmart since they don't taste authentic. The banchan at Kasia are made by two Korean ladies and they said MSG were not used. I tried sauteed bell flower and seasoned sesame leaves and they tasted excellent. Also, the rice cake tasted great. Their fresh chodang soft tofu tasted so good when I made soondubu stew at home. The local fuji apples were juicy and sweet and Chinese vegetables on sale were very fresh. The belt fish were cleaned thoroughly. But beef chuck eye steak was too tough and wasn't trimmed thoroughly. They also have sushi/sashimi and fried chicken to be ordered and can be eaten at the dining area when you walk in.

The Hillsborough area seems a bit of a desert in that regard. The IG influencer who posted about it had me hype to experience it for myself. Overall, it was a bit of a miss for me, though. However I realize I am not the intended target so take what you will and leave the rest. The great: -bright, open, airy, and not crowded. The spot in Edison hits 3 out of 4 but best believe the entire tristate area is in that store morning, noon, and night. -great value on some produce items. I got a 1.5lb container of the assorted tiny tomatoes. Those things eat like candy and I only paid 2.99 for them! I've been enjoying a tomato salad every night for the past week! -South Asian food items. This could cut down on the need to go to different markets because it operates as more of a one stop shop. They also have Halal meats! -great customer service - it made me want to come back The not as great: -I found some great deals on some of the produce but overall prices were pretty high - higher than similar markets and higher than mainstream markets like Stop n Shop and Shop Rite. -the hot bar/serving line was small but mighty. However the quality wasn't quite there. My husband said his orange chicken tasted "old" and the sausage dish I sampled tasted the way it looked. Like hot dogs in peppers. The market is newish and I think it will find its way. It's great that this side of town has a place they can go without having to schlep to Rt. 1 Still it feels like many things along the Belle Mead/Princeton strip - overpriced for what you get.

| Deeply Disappointed -- What Happened to Baithakh?…read more Baithakh used to be one of our favorite go-to spots in North Brunswick. We've always enjoyed the food, but unfortunately, something has definitely changed since our last visit -- and not for the better. We ordered several dishes, including the Baithakh Seekh Kebab Roll, Crispy Fried Chicken Burger, Beef Paya, Beef Nihari, Peshawari Mutton Karahi, and Chicken Malai Boti. To our surprise, nearly everything was a letdown. The Beef Paya and Peshawari Mutton Karahi were both swimming in oil and severely lacked flavor, which was shocking considering how good they used to be. The Fried Chicken Burger had decent seasoning, but the chicken itself was tough and rubbery -- almost inedible. The Chicken Malai Boti was okay, but even that wasn't as tender or flavorful as we've had here before. Maybe they've changed chefs or recipes, but the quality just isn't the same anymore. Baithakh had never failed us before, but this visit was a major disappointment. Sadly, we're giving it a 2 out of 5 stars. We hope they find their way back to the standard that once made them great.

Perfect start and all very delicious. Next up is their pureed lentil soup, which has incredible depth of flavor and leaves you wanting more. We ordered the mixed hummus plate which comes with more fresh made flatbread. Creamy and delicious. We also ordered falafel which they forgot and we asked the waiter twice about it. In hindsight we shouldn't have reminded him. The falafel was bland and my son compared it to frozen food. This was the only part of the meal that wasn't spectacular. The sauce they served with it was delicious so when the waiter asked if we wanted to wrap up the falafel we said yes and got a side of the sauce to bring home. For dinner I ordered lamb chops and the Naringe rice. My meal was 5 stars all the way. Lamb was cooked perfect and great flavors from the marinade. Naringe Rice was delicious and it has unique flavors from the cranberry and pistachios. A must try. My son got the Veal Qorma which I sampled. We both loved the flavors and how tender the veal was. His meal was served with a nice portion of rice and he opted for the Navinge rice as well. 5 stars all the way. Great atmosphere, friendly service. The manager or owner (not sure) was very friendly and welcoming. He went over the menu with us and answered all of our questions. He made us feel welcome and appreciated. After our meal he thanked us for coming. An outstanding meal overall, skip the falafel. We will definitely recommend and return. And it's a BYO
