\nHere\u2019s another World\u2019s Fare delight, this time from Wafa\u2019s Express, 812 Grand St, Brooklyn. I like it when there\u2019s a brick-and-mortar restaurant that anchors a festival vendor because it means we can indulge in their goodies pretty much any time we want to. Wafa\u2019s features Lebanese cuisine, represented here by mujaddara and falafel.

\nMujaddara is a combination of bulgur wheat and lentils, but the caramelized onions on top are as important to the dish as the other components, not merely a garnish, and serve to make it something memorable. Those are crunchy turnips pickled in beet juice coddling the mujaddara.
