Sharing is Caring

We had a late lunch at Regina Kebab House on Saturday.  This is now one of my favourite restaurants in the city.  The food is incredible!!  I posted about the restaurant once before here.

We shared some hummus to start.

We then shared the chicken shawarma, with a falafal on the side.  They cut the shawarma in half for us and brought us each our own plate.  I love restaurants that accommodate sharing (we were saving room for dinner, which we didn't end up cooking - ooops)!  

BEST falafal I've ever had, and definitely best shawarma.  You MUST try this place if you live in town!  It's total "flavour town" (lol, Guy Fieri).

We shared lunch again on Sunday, but it was a little less exciting:

Okay, I can't lie.  I was pretty excited about this Velveeta mac & cheese that we got south of the border.  It's pretty much heaven in a box.  

Do you ever share an entree when out for lunch/dinner?

Regina Kebab House

This evening we went out to one of the city's newest restaurants, Regina Kebab House.  We started with the hummus which was very fresh and beautifully presented. 

 

The owner then brought us a couple falafal to try.  The spice in these was perfect, and they were definitely the best falafel I've ever had.

For the main course, Christopher had the mixed platter with beef and chicken.  The meat was extremely tender and very juicy - cooked to perfection.  

I had the chicken shawarma wrap.  Mmmmmmm!  This wrap far surpasses those at restaurants like Zam Zam and Prairie Donair due to it's complexity of flavour.  It had a touch of spice, some sourness from the pickled turnip, smokiness from the meat, and much more ... It will be hard to go back and order something different because I'll want this again!

When I asked about the pickled turnip the owner said that they are ordered right from Lebanon, as are all the spices.  

 

To end our meal we were given some complimentary baklava.  

We don't have many Mediterranean style restaurants in the city - this one is definitely a keeper!

Do you like Mediterranean food?  Hummus?  Falafal?
