Levantine cooking, from Lebanese and Palestinian kitchens, has a steady home in New York across both casual and ambitious rooms. Tanoreen in Bay Ridge is a benchmark for Palestinian home cooking in Brooklyn, while Mamoun's Falafel in Greenwich Village has fed students cheap, fast falafel since 1971. The two ends share the same roots in the eastern Mediterranean.
