This restaurant offers your usual charcoal chicken served Lebanese style with garlic sauce, pickles and Lebanese bread as well as other cheap & easy dishes.
For entrée I decided to try the deep fried cauliflower. I wondered if they battered it or something beforehand, but nope, when it came out you recognise the slight shrivelled cauliflower which was probably blanched in oil. The ends come out a little charred but the flavour is strangely sweet & addictive. Served with tahini (sesame paste).
On this occasion I was craving kofta (a lamb mince with herbs & chilli cooked on a skewer) and ordered the kofta roll (kofta, garlic sauce, salad rolled in lebanese bread & lightly toasted). The kofta disappointed me because it lacked the chilli spice (and flakes)!
Nice, friendly staff and the trendiest corner you will find in the heart of Merrylands, Sydney’s west.
