Kebab Halebi
The menu says the food is "Middle Eastern," but this restaurant is run by a Syrian family and many of the dishes are different than L.A.'s standard Lebanses-Armenian fare. Order the lamb-and-beef patty, which is a large, flat disk of ground meat bathed in a lemon vinagrette dusted with dried mint. The visually drab dish is full of lovely bright flavors.
