ni, baked eggplant and lemon); Shawarma
(a wrap sandwich using pita bread as the
wrapper and barbecued chicken or beef
combined with lettuce, tomato and tahini
sauce as the wrappec); Falafel sandwich:
and Mini Maza (a vegetarian platter of
stuffed grape leaves, hummus, tabbouleh,
falatel and fatouch).

Try the Tabouleh ($4.50) with a
Chicken Shawarma ($4.95). Farrage
makes the bulgur-based Lebanese salad
with more minced parsley thin bulgur.

It’s served with finely diced tomatoes and
finished in lemon juice and olive oil.
Extremely fight and refreshing; also
extremely good for the system.

The Chicken Shawarara, meanwhile,
features chicken that has been marinated
in red and white wine vinegars and spices
for 24 hours then slow -cooked on a
revolving spit Donair-style.

It is wonderfully tender meat with sub-
de vinegar tang and Middie. Eastern spice ©
overtones. Chopped lettuce, tomate and a -
generous slathering of tahini sauce accom-
pany the chicken. All of the above is tight- ©
y rolied in a thin pita and chopped intc
sushi-style rolls.

Marvellous from one end to the other.

An opening lentil soup was thick with
potatoes and lentils and suffused with
flavours of lemon and fresh cilantro. Good
