Bahraini cuisine, Finland’s heritage ale and are New York’s diners the community hub that they once were?

We sample a morsel of Bahrain’s mouthwatering cuisine with Noor Murad as we flick through her new book, ‘Lugma’. Also in the programme: Poppy Damon heads to the Little Purity diner in Brooklyn to unpack whether the spaces still hold the same community spirit. Plus: Monocle’s Petri Burtsoff sips on some sahti, Finland’s oldest ale.
