I Tried the Best IRAQI FOOD in Iraq’s Holiest City!! (Najaf) · Mark Wiens Abroad
Mark Wiens Abroad was deeply impressed by the 4,000-year-old Ziggurat of Ur, marveling at the advanced engineering of the ancient Sumerians. In Najaf, he highlighted the Kima Najafia as a nutritious, sticky, and comforting signature dish that perfectly represents the city's pilgrimage culture. He was particularly struck by the unique texture of the pounded lamb and chickpeas served over steaming rice.
