Sad it took us so long to dine here! It's a new favorite, not just in the neighborhood, but all of Pittsburgh. We picked Kous Kous for our anniversary dinner, and while it was excellent for a special occasion, it doesn't need one!
We started with the appetizer platter which included hummus, roasted peppers, and eggplant. We had the lemon cilantro hummus, and it was great topped with the peppers and eggplant. I must also sing the praises of their pitas, I could have eaten many, many more if given the chance.
I chose the special - hanger steak with roasted plums and my husband had the lamb. Both were cooked to perfection, and I am a stickler for medium rare beef. Perfectly done. We shared the chocolate almond cake dessert with french press, and it was lovely.
All in all, a delicious 2 hour meal made all the better by a chef who clearly loves what he does - he went table to table to chat, and our waitress was extremely friendly and knowledgeable.
A must go!
