一早订了台,圣诞来这里食晚饭。圣诞节啎系自助餐就系西餐,啎系扒就意粉,非常沉闷,没有惊喜,谂住OR写明呢间系全港唯一埃及菜,当然乐于一试,笔者最钟意uniqueness,薰暗的环境,传统的埃及中东音乐,诡异神秘,气氛一流。座位也十分舒适,掌柜和侍应都是操英语的阿拉伯人,与港式有很远的距离。订位前也给知会当晚只有Xmas Set,5dishes没有其他选择。1)Lentil Soup是一款用豆磨成的汤,每一啖饮落都有起沙的感觉,味道带有浓郁的豆味,质感特别,不是一般西餐厅非红即白的餐汤可比拟的。2)Assorted Cold Mezze Platea)Roasted eggplant with tahina and lemon juiceb)Chickpea puree with tahina, lemon juice and garlicc)Fresh greens tossed together with sumac and baladi breadd)Kentils saut ed with rice and onione)Broad beans pureed with fres
1)Lentil Soup
是一款用豆磨成的汤,每一啖饮落都有起沙的感觉,味道带有浓郁的豆味,质感特别,不是一般西餐厅非红即白的餐汤可比拟的。
2)Assorted Cold Mezze Plate
a)Roasted eggplant with tahina and lemon juice
b)Chickpea puree with tahina, lemon juice and garlic
c)Fresh greens tossed together with sumac and baladi bread
d)Kentils saut ed with rice and onion
e)Broad beans pureed with fresh herbs and crispy fried onion
以上全部都系酱,搽上烤饼到食的,烤饼刚好热辣辣的出炉,有葱与无葱两款,当然有葱的那款有些少味道,配合不同的酱料,由味淡到味浓,当中a)味道最浓最突出,c)就成个酱都系绿色,香草味好浓,不是人人好。
3)Assorted Hot Mezze Plate
a)Mild goat cheese lightly browned in olive oil and served with garden greens
b)Vine leaves stuffed with ab aromatic mix of rice and herbs
c)Spinach and feta cheese mixed together and baked in phyllo dough with baladi salad
d)Crispy fried cakes of broad beans mixed with fresh herbs
e)Egyptian style meatballs tossed in dill flavored tomato sauce
炸羊奶芝士条a)几特别,小小的一条,分量刚好够想试味但又不太好的笔者,e)都系一条用羊肉碎搓成的肉条,没有羊膻,但有几分羊味,可会令爱劲膻的食客失望。这个热盘的焦点落在d),系一块热辣辣的饼,皮有芝麻很香脆,内里是香草及用豆磨成的馅,非常好吃,味道也几重。
4)Main Dish
a)Fresh snapper marinated with dakka dressing and wrapped in vine leaves
b)Braised lamb shank with hibiscus sauce served with cinnamon mashed potatoes and vegetables
笔者点的是a)但sweetheart啎食羊肉,一早点了不要羊,但出来都是有羊,结果对调了,吃了1), 2), 3)其实都有点饱,见到恁大分main course都....b)的那个source其实几易入口,几好送饭。那些饭有点像印度的米,米身长长而且口感有点削。羊肉都是搅碎了混入了source及薯蓉中,恁大个main course只能吃一半,根本食啎晒。
5)Assorted Dessert
有一碟dessert及Fresh Mint Tea,碟dessert有四款,部都系地道菜名,搞不清是甚么,但四件都好好好甜,个cream都好甜,糖胶搽得好似水晶地板的模样,是中东甜品的特色吧。个fresh mint tea啎错,凉薄!!凉枕枕、而有薄荷,饮完之后「日蚀」都啎使食,个口都好香!
整顿饭食了三个小时!三小时才是正常的用晚餐时间,只是香港的生活太急速,菜上迟一点也要催促。吃到一半有惊喜,有女dancer乙名举蜡烛起舞,为原本已经热的室内环境增添了不少热力。整体来说,各方面都很好,值得再来。
