​Judi Restaurant and Bakery turns out a football-shaped Iraqi samoon that is almost good enough to feature on its own as a 100 Favorite dish, but when it's paired with their vegi sampler plate the chewy, fresh-baked loaves are no-brainers for the list.

Tabouleh, hummus in multiple varieties, baba ganoush, cucumber and yogurt salad, and other dips get plated up with olives pickles and dolmas that make for a compelling meal that only costs $6.99. I'd indulge this dish once a week if it was a little closer to the office.
