A little Indian Mediterranean inspired restaurant tucked in Salcedo Village. Located on the Ground floor of a multilevel parking lot. The owner of the place is Kazemi. Said to be one of the people who joined Pinoy Big Brother. I don’t know anything about it cause I don’t watch the show. Based on my research, he studied culinary arts in College of St Benilde and loves middle Eastern cuisine and decided to open this restaurant.

Small place, fits 20-30 people at the most, pack during dinner time, so come here early or late to be sure to get a seat. Nice ventilation.. you wont go ome smelling like what you eat. The place has articles featuring the owner. And pictures of their food. Well, I hate it when what they serve is different looking form the ones in the pics.. oh well…..

Hummus95- Pita bread- 12- velvety ground chickpeas with tahini, garlic and drizzled with olive oil. Perfectly paired with Pita Bread which is said to be prepared fresh daily.

Chelo Kebab Kabideh 195 Two sticks of charbroiled ground beef prepared with Persian spices with fresh grilled tomato and steamed cooked long grain rice. Love the long grain rice. Fluffy, perfectly cooked, add the butter and mixed it in while melting.. wow. THe beef was marinated with just the right amount of spices. THe eggplant puree added a different dimension coupled with the grilled tomato..

Chelo Morg 195 Two sticks of charbroiled chicken breast fillet marinated with Persian spices and herbs served with fresh grilled tomato and steamed cooked long grain rice. I dont know why they keep on hiding the meat. The Chicken was tender and juicy.. Flavorwise… it was just right.

Yogurt Shake-50- tangy, sweet, refreshing. A nice drink to compliment the taste of all the dishes and the heat in them. Comes in various flavours, but I ordered the plain one

THis place can be packed at night so better call to reserve seats. Nice place to unwind. Good ventilation, you wont smell like your food when u eat here.  Would order the GBX(ground beef express) next time… REad lot of raves about it in other blogs
