In the Tenderloin's halal-restaurant district these days, you can find sausage pizzas as well as nihari beef, great kufta tajines, and a half-decent massamun curry. Tayyibaat Meat & Grill, which opened two weeks ago, is adding to the mix burgers, Afghan kabobs, and rotisserie chickens. It's the third outpost for a small chain of fast-food restaurants that began operating in a halal butcher shop in Milpitas about four years ago. The cooks wear "Got Meat?" T-shirts: This is not the place for vegetarians.
According to the counterperson SFoodie spoke to, most of the chicken comes from Pitman Farms in Sanger, suppliers of Mary's Free-Range Chicken, and the beef is supplied by Harris Ranch.
Tayyibaat Meat & Grill: 366 Golden Gate (at Larkin), 913-7421. Open 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Mon.-Sat.
