Hi,

What you may not appreciate is the sense of scale of this platter. It was probably 24 inches long and maybe 15 inches wide with that all that meat arranged on top of two different kinds of rice.

The motawma, which the menu advised was pureed garlic and potatoes, was my favorite new dish. I love whipped cream. I love garlic. The motawma had the consistency of whipped cream, although it was whipped cream with a heady garlic taste. When everyone else declared the dish finished and ready for transport back to the kitchen. I grabbed it and a piece of bread to wipe the last bit of motawma.

The only thing I was not excited about was the hummos, which had an evaporated milk aftertaste to it.

Otherwise I cannot wait to return.

Regards,
