Tucked inside Granville’s Hawa food court, Feast In The Middle East serves slow-simmered Lebanese home cooking instead of standard takeaway grills. Generational family recipes lead the lineup, turning out comforting staples like garlic-sauced shish barak dumplings over lentil rice, tender koussa, and slow-braised lamb that slips right off the bone. Portions easily satisfy hungry groups, backed by staff eager to guide newcomers through traditional stew pots and plates of sheikh el makhshi.
