"Unfortunately, this one’s not going to be available as regularly, but I had the pleasure of trying Mini Kabob’s pop-up at Budonoki last Monday, and these crying tiger lamb chops were supremely delicious. Served with a requisite side of spicy, chile-packed nam jim sauce, these juicy lollipops successfully captured the aggressive seasoning of Armenian khorovats with the sweet lime aroma of crying tiger marinade, more typical on beef. A cup of creamy, spicy garlic toum kept the dish grounded in Mini Kabob’s style. Shaved red onion, sumac, and parsley added a fresh crunch, while the warm bed of fluffy rice provided a contrast of pillowy carbs. Mini Kabob and Budonoki really should offer this collaboration more frequently, because there might not be a more LA mash-up than Armenian and Thai flavors." - Eater Staff
