🏛️🍕🍔 Western 🥨🍝🥗

My go-to at Bread time when I want something of a smaller portion and more balanced.
Surprisingly the quality can vary quite a bit also depending on which cuts of meats you get, the level of charring and the amount of fibre.

This time the fat:protein ratio was much higher.

Chilli crab pasta with cherry tomatoes, bird’s eye chillies, topped with shredded cheese and green pesto.

We enjoyed the meal so much we came back again to try out more dishes.

Rich broth base for the pasta really elevated the flavours in the dish.

Triple P

Similar vibes with the other meat dishes in the Kalamaki Merida section of the menu…on hindsight, we would have just ordered one to try and explore more of the other dishes instead of sealing the deal so early and getting 3 dishes from this section. Food is good but not a wow in this case.

Tzatziki- a Refreshing Greek yoghurt mixed with cucumber, garlic & Bakalaki Extra Virgin Olive Oil can be ordered separately at the starters section of the menu at $15.90.

Filled to the rim with gooey goodness, this rich beefy tomato sauce is layered with eggplant and potatoes instead of the pasta sheets in lasagna, covered with a thick layer of white béchamel sauce and blanketed with cheese.

Reel back on the meat with a vegetarian version at $25.90.

All in all, the total bill also came up rather hefty on a busy weekend night where every table was filled. Remember to reserve seats in advance!

Grilled perfectly with a slightly smokey flavour on the lamb.
Baked till a nice golden crust has formed on the potatoes.
Enjoyed with a squeeze of lemon, sprinkle of salt and a pinch of dried oregano.

Grilled lamb chops (3) marinated with oregano & rosemary with oven-baked potatoes on the side.

Our favourite of the day.
Meat was juicy and tender with the right amount of char.

Minced lamb and beef kebab
Grilled skewers served with tomato, onion, tzatziki, pita bread and fries.

Portion can get filling especially with lots of carbs. The pita bread is less thrilling and can come in a choice of wrapped or unwrapped.

Greek Chicken Gyros
Grilled skewers served with tomato, onion, tzatziki, pita bread and fries.

Portion can get filling especially with lots of carbs. The pita bread is slightly thicker and can come in a choice of wrapped or unwrapped.

Chilled chickpea spread with tahini, garlic, lemon juice, herbs and olive oil.

Pita bread with salted oregano is slight sweeter and less airy or fluffy than the complimentary bread basket 🍞 🧺 personally preferred the toasted free bread (may not need to get the pita if so) with the hummus with free flow olive oil (add to taste).
