"This tiny takeout window on Ventura Blvd. in Sherman Oaks serves nothing but decadent bourekas, and that's perfectly fine by us. You might wait as long as a half-hour for your order (though you can call and pre-order), but once you taste these crispy, cheese-stuffed pastries, none of that will matter. Four different filling options are available: feta and spinach, mushroom and truffles, ricotta and za'atar, and brown butter with potatoes. All of them are amazing. Get here early, order a few before they sell out, and share the leftovers with a deserving friend." - brant cox, sylvio martins
