Gastronomy Travel Series, Manila on my mind???? Al Sham Middle East Cuisine

Manila on my mind February 2023
Mediterranean cuisine is a type of cuisine that is based on the foods and cooking styles of the countries bordering the Mediterranean Sea, such as Greece, Italy, Spain, Turkey, and some Middle Eastern countries.
Mediterranean cuisine is characterized by its emphasis on fresh, whole foods such as vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, grains, and fish, as well as the use of olive oil and fresh herbs and spices. Meat is consumed less frequently than in many other cuisines, and when it is, it is often grilled or roasted.
Mediterranean cuisine has been associated with numerous health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease and certain types of cancer, due to its emphasis on fresh, whole foods and healthy fats. Some popular dishes from Mediterranean cuisine include hummus, falafel, tabbouleh, Greek salad, pizza, pasta, paella, and baklava.
Al – Sham Middle East Cuisine located in Adriatico Street Manila serving Halal and Arabian dishes and offers only the freshest meats, vegetables, ingredients and aromatic herbs and spices.

I ordered for a grill platter which consist of well- seasoned roasted lamb, beef and chicken along-side Fattoush (Levantine Salad consist of toasted bread and mixed salad vegetables, Hummus (made from chickpeas), Baba Ganoush (eggplant), French fries (and I wondered why these was included in the platter) and Pizza there’s fresh chilli, fresh onion, lemon and fresh tomatoes as well. Of course, the platter would never be complete without the Kuboos or the Arabian Naan Bread or the Pita Bread. We finished the savoury and satisfying dish with Ayran or the Arabian Yoghurt drink to refresh our palette and continuously savour the lingering taste of the Mediterranean feast.
Surely, I will be back here to experience more of the dishes on the menu. I am yet to taste the authentic Biryani and Kabsa and more!
And just to give you a hint of my overall experience:

And by the way, they also sell food items like basmati rice, tea, coffee and herbs and spices. I inserted some photos for reference if you guys are interested to buy. The price range is also affordable.
