ROTANA - Maylands welcomes Lebanese mezze

Guest User March 24, 2015

There is something about finding little gems in the 'burbs. Recently over dinner we were talking about those places you almost want to keep a secret for fear of the masses taking away the ease to grab a table at your favourite haunt. Rotana on Eighth Avenue in Maylands is going to be one of those places.

A mismatch of Western eats amongst deliciously authentic Middle Eastern plates, forget bacon, eggs and the tomato sauce and go straight for the mezze.

I thought the Grilled mixed plate was awesome value considering what you usually get for $24 at the pub.  A mix of beef, chicken and lamb skewers served with rice, fattoush, pita, hommous, garlic dip and baba ghanouj. — I thought the Grilled mixed plate was awesome value considering what you usually get for $24 at the pub.

The Prophet

The Prophet is the kind of place you tell all your friends about. For $40 you get everything seen below (except for the Turkish delight). Just don't eat too much pita bread .. by the time the kebabs hit the table you are already one bite away from a food coma. We had a lovely night celebrating my bf's mama's birthday. Cheap and cheerful dinner complimented by a bottle of French celebratory champagne.
