| - Summary: Amazing. I had visited the one in Miami before (which was also fantastically) and had been wanting to try out the Toronto location. Flavourful, unexpected delights.
Roasted beets (labneh): this is a labneh that is served with crispy bread. The labneh is wonderful -- the beets add subtle sweetness, and the yogurt is smooth. The bread is well-toasted, so crispy on the outside but soft to the bite. A wonderful combination
Middle Eastern crispy chicken: love, love, love. Fried SO well. Melt-in-your-mouth kind of dish, and the hot sauce adds a subtle yet important flavour.
Black cod: this was a bit of a disappointment. The fish is wrapped around vine leaves, which are burnt. I thought that the burnt flavour was too overpowering.
Sweet jeweled rice: a must!! Thin crispy carrots on top, and just a great mix of ingredients. So good.
Dessert: crispy qqatayef: as the name suggests, these are fried. Very sweet, with a side of strawberries. They were quite good, and I had to finish them even though I was full.
Can't wait to come back and try more dishes!
