This family-run spot in Camberwell serves up some of the best Kurdish food in the city. Run by chef Pary Baban and her sons Rang and Raman, it’s a nourishing whirl of smoke, sumac and sweet, sweet baklava. Don't miss the the house fries: picture-perfect chips flecked with tamarind-and-pink-yoghurt sauce, spices, sesame and herbs. The Vestry Road location is the original spot, but there's another outlet on Camberwell Church Street, too.
