| - SUPERLATIVE! I thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. It is modern, sleek, hip, trendy and just gives an all around great vibe. The music was even awesome.
We started off with the Rose as a beverage. The drink included Ketel one vodka, Dillon's rose gin, pomegranate, rose, lemon and hibiscus. The drink had an arousing scent due to flowers and taste better than it looked. We ordered from the "SHARE" side of the menu which would give us an opportunity to try several different dishes.
The Middle Eastern Fried Chicken - I really don't know what I expected, but this was delicious. All parts of the chicken was fried into little balls and served with a red schug hot sauce. Just magnificent!
Crispy Hand Rolled Couscous - This is the best couscous I have had in my life. It consisted of collards and halloumi. I could have had several orders of this stuff. It was excellent.
The Lamb Rack - Initially, the rack was brought out rare and we had to send it back. Once they brought it back cooked medium as we requested. The lamb was well seasoned, tender and juicy.
Thrice-Cooked Fries - The dipping sauce for the fries is what made them unique. They were very good as well.
Pizzelle - This was a very good way to finish the meal. This dessert is baklava ice cream, salted caramel and couscous praline. The look of the dessert reminds you of a Neapolitan ice cream sandwich. We had to let it soften up a little, but it was heavenly.
The service was impeccable and if you're ever in Toronto you must stop and enjoy the overall experience of this restaurant.
