Yaba’s in Dunwoody makes decent bagels that work when you need a quick bite, but the real draw is the way the shop utilizes Mediterranean flavors for spreads and toppings. While the menu has a variety of breakfast options (like the just-OK pastrami melt with scrambled eggs), you're better off sticking to the options you can’t find anywhere else. We like The Levantine, which comes with a hefty slathering of labneh and so much za’atar it looks like a wreath. Or, for a protein punch, get The Jerusalem, with hummus topped with finely chopped beef and a dusting of sumac.
