\nDid you know that Fifth Avenue is in Manhattan and 5th Avenue is in Brooklyn? The Bronx and Queens have their own as well, but Brooklyn\u2019s is in our sights today \u2013 more specifically, Alsalam Restaurant & Meat Market at 7206 5th Ave in the Middle Eastern Bay Ridge neighborhood. Their awning tells it all: gyros, BBQ chicken, shish kebab, falafel, meat pies, and zaatar \u201cpizza\u201d along with grocery items like cheese, olives, nuts and halal goodies in general \u2013 just what you\u2019d hope for and expect \u2019round these parts.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s their lamb shawarma, a tasty treat enjoyed a few months ago when the weather was more like that of Lebanon \u2013 juicy lamb, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, graced with a creamy yogurt sauce (and yeah, I added my own hot sauce! \ud83d\ude09).
