Before our dishes were complete, we were served hummus and pita. I seem to think most Middle Eastern food is bland, and this wasn't really much different. It was also served on a paper plate, which put me off a bit. The spinach pies were served soon after, and I was happy with the pie - the spinach wasn't too salty or bitter, but it was tasty with the doughy bread.
When my chicken kebab dish was ready, it came on a bed of basmatti rice and sweet peppers on the side. The four-piece chicken kebab tasted like four pieces of chicken, slightly spiced, on a stick. I wasn't impressed, considering I could have probably made it myself.
In addition to my not being satisfied with the food itself, the atmosphere made me very uncomfortable. I felt like I was intruding on a family business, with kids running around and the owners were sitting at a table, as well. Brittany would go back, but I'd rather not.

"The four-piece chicken kebab tasted like four pieces of chicken, slightly spiced, on a stick." What else is a chicken kebab supposed to taste like Captain Obvious?!
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't like it then, you definitely won't like it now (new ownership).
I guess I just wasn't impressed. I could've made it on my own. I was hoping for more flavor, something really creative and great. The flavor was bland. Maybe I'll like it if they've changed things up a bit?
