Unconventional Diner: Sweet Potato Shakshuka

Signature Dish

From Prep to Plate

Seth heads to the Unconventional Diner in Washington, D.C.'s Mount Vernon Square to sample an innovative Middle Eastern brunch dish. Chef Leena puts an unconventional spin on shakshuka with a sweet potato–forward curry that blends Middle Eastern tradition with global flavors. Coconut milk, warm spices, chickpeas, and roasted sweet potatoes create a rich vegan base, finished with a perfectly fried egg, fresh herbs, and naan topped with za’atar. It’s bold, comforting, and brunch-ready.

...this “diner” may look like the classic American translation but is in fact a far cry from your tuna-melt standby (and book ahead, because it's always busy). Instead, this kitchen ramps up known classics by riffing on tradition.
