| - You know how when you crave something so badly (in this case shawarma) but then the place you're supposed to get it from takes so long to get it to you that you lose your appetite? Well that's exactly what happened...
Walked in and sat in a nearly empty restaurant with my baby on a Friday night. We ordered drinks -- coke & water -- and by the time our waitress was back with our drinks we knew what we wanted to order, the Princess Combo (chicken & beef kabob, chicken & beef shawarma, rice, salad, and hummus).
Then... we waited, and waited, and waited some more. I even joked and said our waitress forgot to place our order... my man assured me they didn't. After waiting for 30 minutes, we got restless. We almost walked out without even getting our food, but my man asked the waitress, who said "they were working on it". Umm. Were they just now running around to catch the chickens in the back? Counting the pieces of rice? What on earth could possibly take so long?!
We told the waitress to just make our order to-go at this point; we were so hungry but we lost our appetite. She finally brought our food out and we were on our way home -- starving and disappointed.
Once we arrived home, we opened up the food -- which in all honesty smelled delicious. The taste? Okay. Nothing spectacular. My man's cooking is way better, more flavorful, and for the $30 we spent at Princess Mediterranean, we could've eaten for a whole week. We won't be back.
