Papa Ganoush

Papa Ganoush is a hidden gem located on the first floor of a building, offering a great selection of Middle Eastern food, with a chilled and enjoyable atmosphere. Every dish is cooked to perfection with fresh and varied ingredients, offering something to suit everyones tastes. The menu features a range of meze/tapas dishes, including pitta, shawarma spiced chicken, grilled cabbage and lamb.

The portions are generous, so it is easy to over order, but the staff are helpful and attentive. The tzatziki and hummus with green harrisa are particularly good, as are the chicken shawarma and pork souvlaki. The spring green curry is packed with flavour and the veg still has a bit of crunch. The goan seabass fry is also excellent, even those not usually keen on fish will enjoy it.

The halloumi is served with red pepper sauce and mushrooms, rather than the baba ganoush, salad and tomato harrisa that is listed on the menu. However, the falafel served instead of the aubergine and lamb was delicious.

Overall, this is a great restaurant offering delicious food and a relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended!
