We stopped in here for a light lunch but ended up with three courses. The appetizer and entree were so good we decided we had to try the dessert! The servings were quite large and good enough to share, so the price was actually quite reasonable even though this is a fine dining restaurant.
The appetizer was just an egg plant spread served with naan but the spread itself has some delicate flavours and no mere spread. The chicken entree was soft and tender, served with israeli couscous and beluga lentils, with nicely contrasting textures. The chick peas salad that came with it was quite complex - a refreshing mix of chick peas, peppers, onions and radishes.
But the crowning glory was the warm Egyptian coconut pudding - Um Ali. It was the best ever bread pudding we've tasted - soft and moist but crunchy on top, perfectly complemented by the cinnamon ice cream and mint leaves.
