This palm-sized portion was rather small, but the hummus was very delicious. I particularly enjoyed the chunky chickpeas that remained in the mix, and the addition of paprika elevated the whole dip.
Using the Eatigo voucher, this whole spread for the 3 of us came up to $32.01!
I don't have a whole lot to say except EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS and I am extremely pleased with my experience. Service was friendly and accommodating, and the ambiance made me feel like I was in Lebanon (well probably the touristy parts). I especially enjoyed the za'tar portion of the manaquis, and the labneh. If I were to give a critique, it would be that the chicken was too dry so maybe just order the hummus without toppings instead.
A falafel pita which brought me straight back to Israel. They really nailed it with the tahini and amba sauces, but it was the falafel that was outstanding - perhaps even better than the ones I have had in Israel! You may be skeptical, doubting if 3 falafel balls and 1 pita bread would be filling enough. Let me assure you that it is - there is nothing more I could've asked for...except maybe some hummus.
What could've been better? For one, the Israeli hospitality would have made my experience more enjoyable. When I found out that Pita Bakery was opened by an Israeli, I was excited to check it out not just for the food, but also for the banter and chit-chat with the chefs/ storeowners that I had become used to in Israel. Maybe the owner was out at the time I visited, and while his staff were helpful, I didn't get /that/ level of hospitality. Second, I would have liked the option of getting a small portion of hummus to eat with my pita! Currently, if you dine-in, there is only a $4 portion of hummus available to order. Given that the pita itself is pretty filling, I would have liked the option to get a smaller serving of hummus just to complete the meal but not fill me up too much.
