The food is very fresh as they grill your meat to order at the shop. The food at the hot plate station was very fresh too- three different types of rice, some more meats, beans, and a pasta dish of sorts. It's quite difficult to order since there is no menu or food labels to know what the dishes are. The man behind the counter was nice though didn't seem to have the patience to really explain. We got beef skewers and chicken skewers - one as a rice plate (came with a large serving of rice, half a pita, a quarter grilled tomato and a quarter raw onion) and a bread plate (two full pitas, a quarter grilled tomato, a quarter raw onion, and fresh dill)
