Miznon

"You could certainly spend time brainstorming ways to recreate Miznon’s famous “run-over” potato at home without injuring an innocent wine bottle or rolling pin. You could also order from Miznon’s UWS location. If you want to stock your fridge, you can pre-order things like fresh fish, dips, wine, and pantry goods [here]((https://www.northmiznon.com/online-ordering/miznon-shop/menu). They make all of their grocery deliveries on Friday afternoons." - hannah albertine

"What It Is: A casual Israeli spot serving pita sandwiches in Chelsea Market Perfect For: Lunch, Cheap Eats If you’ve been to Tel Aviv or Paris, someone has probably told you to try Miznon. Or at least they should have. This place specializes in putting delicious things into delicious pitas, and now they have their first U.S. location in Chelsea Market (they’re also in Vienna and Melbourne now, if by any chance those are more convenient for you). The pita fillings range from crispy rib eye to corned beef to eggs or ratatouille, and they’re all really good. The whole roasted cauliflower is also better than cauliflower has any right to be. The space isn’t anything fancy and is best used for a quick lunch, but they do have a bar that would also work for a casual dinner. The Verdict: These are good sandwiches, and we sincerely hope more of these open in the U.S. It’s now on the Hit List." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg, chris stang, matt tervooren

"Chelsea Market has better lunch options than most food halls, and Miznon is one of the best spots here. It’s a small chain that originated in Tel Aviv and now has locations in cities like Paris and Vienna, and they specialize in pitas filled with steak, lamb, and mushrooms. You can also get other things like a whole roasted head of cauliflower, which comes out slightly charred and covered in olive oil. This spot is counter-service, but there are a few tables and bar seats where you can hang out and eat." - bryan kim, neha talreja, hannah albertine, sonal shah

"Chelsea Market tends to be full of European tourists wearing Pumas and tracksuits, so you’ll fit right in wearing gym clothes at Miznon. This Mediterranean spot serves pitas filled with things like crispy rib eye, ratatouille, and avocado egg salad, as well as an incredibly good whole roasted cauliflower. The casual space has some table seating and a long bar, and is ideal for a quick lunch." - bryan kim, hillary reinsberg, matt tervooren

"COVID-19 update: Open for pickup and delivery. In a city full of Middle Eastern food carts, Israeli celebrity chef Eyal Shani’s Chelsea Market restaurant goes beyond serving just the regional classics. Shani’s known for pillowy pita bread, but instead of the usual suspects (shawarma, falafel), Miznon fills it with ratatouille, hake, and even a cheeseburger. The whole roasted cauliflower, which is first pressure-cooked in salt water, then roasted whole with just olive oil, is served with Israeli-imported tahini and is absolutely delicious.
