Again, a clich\u00e9, but it was really a form of love,\u201d said Boueri Ziade.<\/p>\n<p>Before the pandemic, Boueri Ziade had experimented with small-scale popups.\u00a0But after a double crisis in Lebanon \u2014 first, the\u00a02019 financial crisis and then the pandemic in 2020 \u2014 the siblings decided to expand their concept into a restaurant that celebrated Lebanese cultural history.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere&#8217;s always a restless fire in you to just try to do something,\u201d George Boueri\u00a0said. \u201cWe took the plunge from there.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"file-3616252\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vmcdn.ca\/f\/files\/bkreader\/images\/lifestyle-culture\/largeplatessawa.JPG;w=960\" alt=\"largeplatessawa\" \/><figcaption>Large plates at Sawa: Beiruti samke harra (center), Kibbeh arnabiyeh (right), rice (bottom). Photo by Hannah Berman.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Intent on finding an acclaimed chef to help them represent Lebanese culinary traditions, the siblings are pleased that chef Soroosh Golbabae, who has also worked as a chef at Eyval, Gramercy Tavern, and the nearby Sofreh, is now manning\u00a0the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>Typical Lebanese restaurant menus tend to be very long and read like a book. At Sawa,\u00a0the menu\u00a0is purposefully limited to about 20\u00a0items.<\/p>\n<p>Boueri Ziade said when non-Lebanese go to Lebanese restaurants, they tend to order dishes they are familiar with, like hummus and falafel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So the goal of the menu was to keep it modern and restricted, to put choices that people have not seen on other menus while also keeping safer options for people to still be comfortable ordering,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Sawa\u2019s hummus, which\u00a0comes with handmade pita, can be ordered\u00a0with an optional topping of braised Wagyu beef cheek, a showstopping tangy topper that\u00a0is marinated in aromatics and spices, then cooked in pomegranate molasses.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"figure\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"file-3616246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vmcdn.ca\/f\/files\/bkreader\/images\/lifestyle-culture\/dipssawa2.JPG;w=960\" alt=\"dipssawa2\" \/><figcaption>Hummus with beef cheek at Sawa. Photo by Hannah Berman.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The kibbeh arnabiyeh is another\u00a0star of the menu. This\u00a0dish consists of a big shank of lamb, with meat that leaps off the bone at a mere touch, served in an aromatic tahini stew with three kibbeh, or fried meatballs,\u00a0floating on the side. The kibbeh are typically\u00a0the foundation of this dish as it is traditionally made in Lebanon \u2014 the lamb is the Boueris\u2019 modern addition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReally, the goal is to hold on to what we have and preserve the culture, the traditions, and the history that we have,\u201d Boueri Ziade said. \u201cThere&#8217;s been a lot of changes in the country and it&#8217;s meaningful to us to hold onto all of that \u2014 the warmth of Sunday lunches. We&#8217;re trying to portray that in this space, where it&#8217;s warm and cozy, where you can have happy, big gatherings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sawa.nyc\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Sawa<\/a>\u00a0is located at 75 5th Ave.\u00a0and open Wed\u2013Sun, 5:30pm \u201311pm.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Hannah Berman Sawa, a\u00a0new Lebanese restaurant, opened on 5th Avenue in Park Slope, joining other recent Lebanese openings in Brooklyn like\u00a0Cobble Hill\u2019s El Cedro.
