| - WHAT TO TRY?!
Their specialty house made hummus, the grilled calamari (so fresh!), the fried chicken, the loaded cauliflower, the falafel and the lamb shawarma.
I think any of the hummus flavors will be amazing. I tried the hummus of the day. It comes in a big portion (on a sizeable plate) and it's topped with heaps of Swiss chard and chick peas. At the top is some tzatziki. Too bad there's only limited pita bread to dip into the hummus (because you will get charged if you get refills) because the pita bread was soft and fluffy, very chewy, love it!
I love calamari and their grilled calamari is comparable to other places I enjoy calamari at. The calamari was chewy but tender, not rubbery at all. It was cooked just right. Add on the tomatoes in one bite, the taste is divine. Too bad there's no olives on the side. Would really compliment this dish!
I didn't try the fried chicken and the loaded cauliflower but from the looks at other tables, both dishes looked good. And if there's so many tables asking for these dishes, they must be really good too.
The falafel was one of the best I've had. Big in size, crunchy on the outside, soft in the inside and can I say I absolutely love the bright green color inside. Just makes me happy looking at the falafel.
The lamb shawarma is good for those lamb eaters. I'm not a huge lamb fan but this dish was acceptable. Taste wasn't too gamy but I'd say it was on the drier side. I wish they had more tzatziki sauce on the size or some hummus spread so it brings in some more flavor to the wrap. I like the sweet mandarins, chopped parsley and pickled radishes as the garnish though!
Oh by the way, try their Israeli cheesecake! Very creamy and doesn't feel heavy at all like the typical cheesecake.
LAST TIP?!
I suggest you sit in their patio because it's nice in the summer time to lounge there. It's secluded too so you won't hear the busy cars and buses on the road. It's also very pretty with the lights hanging on top and the great music playing in the background!
