What the creator captured
AmericanTurk explored the West Village to document the cost of a halal food tour during Ramadan. He was particularly impressed by the value of the $6 smash burger and declared the lamb shawarma from Mamoon's to be the best in Manhattan. Despite enjoying the high-quality chopped cheese, he concluded the night feeling overstuffed and joking about needing a diet.
