after many, many years of frequenting wicker park and wondering about that cute triangle shaped restaurant, i finally stopped in over the weekend, and man – it was the perfect cold weather meal. we ordered the mixed shawarma plate which comes with steak and chicken shawarma, rice, hummus, salad, and pita. both meats were soo thin and perfectly cooked, it made me wish they made al pastor tacos lol. the chicken was really juicy, but the steak was definitely my favorite. it was slightly crispy and caramelized and so full of flavor. the rice was so fluffy and tender, and the hummus was ridiculously creamy. the salad and pita weren’t anything special, but were great for making a little sandwich stuffed with everything inside. we also got a small order of the falafel (bc duh) and it was very crispy and packed with spices. my fiance and i enjoyed this meal so much that we ordered it the next day hahah so we’ll obviously be back for more whenever we need some great middle eastern food to keep us warm this winter
