This Lebanese charcoal chicken shop is a Sydney instution. People travel far and wide to eat at El Jannah (and squeezed into a narrow corridor when they burnt down and ran an ad hoc shop next door) and their quality of garlic sauce is highly regarded. People who enjoy “Habib’s” chicken usually discover and then upgrade to El Jannah.
It is a really cheap feed – grab a whole chicken, chips maybe a tabouleh and it only works out to $10 per person. Lebanese bread is served to you warm and complimentary with garlic sauce and these multicoloured pickles which the daring will put in their kebab-concoctions for an extra salty hit.
Chicken is charred to a crispy perfection, meat juicy and tender underneath.
Dip your chips in the garlic sauce, spread the sauce on your bread or smother it on your chicken – everyone eats El Jannah differently and remember to bring 2 packets of gum and don’t see your significant other for at least 2 days afterwards.
