The restaurant positions itself as Mediterranean but it is actually more Middle Eastern.  The restaurant is modern and very clean.  The kitchen is very open and clean.   You can see an Egyptian Chef preparing your dishes so you are assured of the authenticity of the cuisine.  Kibbeh $12 Bulgor patties stuffed with minced lamb and pine nuts This is quite moist and definitely nutty. Vegetarian Kibbeh $10 Vegetarian patties stuffed with vegetables & beans Falafel $9 Chickpeas cutlets fried and served with Tahina or garlic yoghurt sauce Arayes $12 Flat Lebanese bread stuffed with lamb or chicken minced meat and served with garlic yoghurt sauce The stuffed bread was ok on its own. The garlic yoghurt sauce was delicious!  It has a zing (thanks to the garlic) but it is moderated by the milk solids of the yoghurt. Saffron BBQ Wings $10 Selected chicken mid wings marinated with saffron, fresh lemon juice, and Persian herbs They arrived in a wonderful cloud of aroma.  The spices and meaty smell and chargrill smell and the acidity of the lemon juice is a wonderful mixture and certainly whets your appetite.  These are the most beautiful chicken wings I have ever  seen.  Golden with beautiful char marks;  moist and glistening with juicy on the inside. Chen Jeh Beef $29 300GM Premium Australian beef tenderloin cut into cubes, marinated with saffron & special herbs and grilled The beef was very tender.  The grilled vegetables looked and tasted great!  They tasted so light and healthy. If you prefer a free-and easy, buffet style experience, the lunch buffet ($17) is for you! You can enjoy  all-you-can-eat salad and dips, soup and dessert of the day, pita bread, vegetable and meat stews. For an additional $10, you can enjoy one lamb/ chicken/ fish skewer. If you prefer something light, the $11 salad set will get you one fill of any salad from the buffet counter. Top up $3 for a serving of chicken, beef, fish, or falafel.
