Saw this place on Broadsheet and decided to give it a try. Never had Israeli food in my life so find it very exciting and interesting flavours. I ordered hummus with mushrooms and Chicken Shawarma. Hummus was light and smooth, definitely the best hummus I have ever had! Chicken Shawarma is like a chicken wrap in my understanding with pickles? great punchy flavour! If you are like me have't tried this cuisine definitely give it a go!
Sometimes the decisions are best left in the hands of a more than capable chef when it comes to choosing what to eat. Especially if everything on the menu sounds absolutely delicious, leaving you paralyzed with indecisiveness. We were guilty as charge when it came to perusing the menu at South Melbourne’s Left Handed Chef eatery earlier this year (pre-iso times) but luckily for us, there was indeed a leave-it-up-to-the-chef option with The Chef’s Platter. On the day of our visit, our platter comprised of a carbilicious and incredibly delicious assortment of Israeli goodies. Super generous spread too, I might add. Some of my favourites included the eggplant sabich in a pitta (a thick, fluffy pitta filled with silky pieces of eggplant, fried potatoes, boiled egg and tahini sauce) and the velvety smooth and flavoursome hummus (it’s one of their signature dishes with good reason!). I do also enjoy a good falafel and the left handed chef dishes out an excellent one when it comes to both flavour and texture, not at all dry. Would highly recommend.
Hummus is extremely smooth, pita bread is soft and perfectly soaks up the dip and tabouli. Chicken Shawarma is sooo tasty and all very reasonably priced!
