Haj Kahil is widely considered the pinnacle of fine Palestinian dining in Jaffa. Their Musakhan is celebrated for the meticulous slow-cooking of the chicken and the use of premium, deep-purple sumac that provides a distinct tartness without being overpowering.

While famous for their Fateh, Al-Kalha serves a Musakhan that feels like a home-cooked meal. It is less about the 'restaurant' experience and entirely about the balance of caramelized onions and tender chicken.
