A little meze to sample in advance of next week’s New Times Café review.
Mandolin performs straightforward cooking best, whether it be an
assertively grilled whole yellowtail — its pristine white flakes primped
with lemon and olive oil — or a sweet, tender curlicue of grilled
octopus misted with the same Mediterranean lubricants. Even chicken
kebab, which is usually just menu fodder for timid eaters, turned out
to be unexpectedly rousing — five huge, juicy hunks of deliciously
grilled white meat enhanced further when dipped into a side dish of
tzatziki.
