I had such a good meal here last time we wanted to give it a second try.
Started with a Turkish Coffee of course
Bold and intense caramel flavours. If you are new to Turkish coffee beware. It’s strong. Very strong. Very satisfying though.
Cigar Borek is something I tried last time and I loved it.
Think spring roll but with cheese inside.
The phyllo was nice and crispy and it has a nice, citrusy, salty flavour.
Absolutely delicious.
I normally don’t order soup when eating out. Unless it Lobster Bisque ot the Pan Roast at the Oyster Bar in Vegas. But I haven’t had Lentil soup often so we thought we would give it a try.
That is just a bowl of warmth right there.
Thinner consistency than I expected, an amazing blend of spices turned a simple lentil into one of he best bowls of soup I’ve had in a long time.
And of course Hummus and bread.
I’m now officially ruined for any commercially produced hummus.
A beautifully creamy texture with a hint of garlic and citrus to brighten up the flavour. Served with a homemade bread for dipping.
That could be a meal all by itself. A delicious one.
Well after all this great food I will definitely have to come back. Next for Friday nights live music. Then breakfast.
