Takliya Grilled Prawns $188
Takliya is a region in Lebanon and this dish highlights that region. Even though no unusual or extra spice or herb is used. I had high expectations for this but sadly, they were not fulfilled.
I used to see six pieces but now there is only five Some are big and plump whilst others were not. The taste though is spot on, love the flavor you get from grilling them. They were easy to remove from shell and the shell also has a lot of flavor for you to suck on.
The shatta sauce is delicious as always but honestly given very tentatively. The sauce and prawn ate well with pita but I wished there were more sauce so each bite has a generous dollop.
After finishing this dish, there is a very strong metallic taste that lingers in my mouth. Perhaps because some prawns were not cleaned properly and still had their intestines intact….

Hearth-baked Pita Bread $68
Smaller portion than before 🥲 Used to be two pieces cut into eight quarters, now there are only six quarters which means only one and a half whole pieces of pita. The taste also changed and became more yeasty.
Unlike before, the dough doesn’t harden after being cool. It is still fluffy and easy to tear after cooling down.

Hummus Awarma $118
I love their hummus so had to try this version with minced beef.
First of all, the hummus to beef ratio is 1:2 with a mountain of beef and only a small dollop of hummus 😕
The beef is good (if not better) by itself, not greasy but with a generous pour of brown butter. Very savory and meaty with a great texture against the smooth hummus. Beef also goes really well with the pita as it is juicy and pita is absorbent.
The hummus is very velvety and creamy. I do miss the crunch from the chickpeas but the pine nuts tastes really good too.
Not a bad dish if you always get their hummus but I wish there would be more.

💬 Overall, the portions of everything seems to be shrinking which makes me sad as their price is already on the high end. The flavor is still amazing though.
I cant wait to try their new menu. I just hope they don’t increase the prices 😬
