Anybody know what the tiny little lentils Cava serves are called or where to get them? Small, black, not much bigger than a couple grains of rice?

Yeah, they are also referred to as beluga lentils and they're much smaller and probably because they look like caviar and I've used them quite a few times in different recipes. Cava came up a few times when I was originally looking into this type of lentil and apparently Cava is a restaurant that made them popular. Anyway they're generally like I said much smaller and generally black which I used in a particular eggplant vegetarian dish that was rollatini style filled with veg and assorted grains and this was one of them.1
