We had the most delicious meal here last weekend! We booked the limitless lunch and enjoyed every single mouthful. The food was amazing! We ordered a couple of starters and the mixed grill for two and even my three year old commented on how yummy it was. The portions were huge, we ended up taking food home and it still tasted so good when eaten the next day.I cannot praise and thank Jamal and Farida enough for their lovely hospitality and shout out to Nicky too! We're already planning our next visit with friends for a few weeks time and I'll be bringing a couple of bottles with me so I can take home some of their incredible Egyptian lime juice, trust me, it is to die for!
