We came across this restaurant by chance actually. There was a girl handing out leaflets on the street below where the restaurant is situated. It's not really in a place which you would think of going to because it's so out of the way and if there wasn't anyone handing out the leaflets you wouldn't even know it existed. I only wanted to give this place a try as I've never really tried Arabic Halal food before. We walked up a flight of stairs to be greeted by a old security guard who asked us whe

We walked up a flight of stairs to be greeted by a old security guard who asked us where we were going.
Then waited for the lift to take us up to the top floor. The place is small with about 10 to 12 tables and on each
table they had a Shisha pipe which you could smoke for a $100. The view from the window looks over Wan Chai's
basketball court.
We sat down and looked over the menu, there's also lots of food pictures stuck up on the walls too, which is great!
As I like looking at photo's rather than words. Spoilt for choice! as everything looked so yummy. The waiter was
very friendly, he saw that we couldn't make our minds up, so came over to give us a helping hand and made some
suggestion. In the end we ordered, 'The Mixed Grill with garlic' and 'The Chicken Sharwarma'. The Chicken was quite nice. The rice was very different to tastes in which I usually eat. I can't say
I loved it or hated it. It's looked very appealing, with the meat grilled on the skewer. There was one Sheesh Kebab, a lamb rack,
a beef skewer decorated with peppers and a chicken skewer. I personally thought the meat tasted fine.
There were two sauces, one which I presumed was the garlic sauce. But tasted nothing like garlic though.
It was more like thousand Island sauce and sour cream and chives. Anyhow it complimented with the meats fine.
Again the rice which came with the dish had a very strong taste to it. It was described as a special rice with nuts in it.
If I was to choose from the rice that came with the chicken and the one in this dish. I would go for the chicken one.
However it's definitely an acquired taste. I personally wouldn't like to eat that rice again though.
Overall, it was interesting to try, even though it wasn't a 100% to my liking.
If I had space, I would have really liked to of tried their apple crumble. It look super tasty in the photos.
