Must-Try Delights: This week Al-Badr Meat Platter with our Exclusive dessert. Dont forget a Nice Spice tea
Hey there, fellow foodies! I recently stumbled upon this little treasure in Birmingham – Al-Bader Lebanese and Moroccan Cuisine on Ladypool Road in Sparkbrook.
Let me take you on a ride through my experience at this place that’s been dishing out mouthwatering Middle Eastern goodness for over 10 years, all inspired by those nostalgic family recipes.
Service: The folks working at Al-Bader are just lovely. Seriously, it’s like they’ve got this sixth sense for making you feel right at home. They know their stuff too. I had a ton of questions about the menu, and they guided me through it like we were old pals. A+ for the service.
Appetizers: Okay, let’s talk about the food because that’s what we’re all here for, right? We kicked things off with the Lebanese Mezze Platter – a party on a plate. Hummus, baba ganoush, falafel – it’s like my taste buds took a trip to Beirut. And those Moroccan Spinach and Feta Cigars? Imagine crunchy perfection filled with all the savory goodness. Unreal.
Main Course: The Mixed Grill Platter was a meat lover’s dream. Kebabs, lamb chops, shawarma – it’s like they brought the whole grill to our table. Every bite was a flavor explosion. And then there was the Chicken Tagine with Apricots and Almonds. Sweet and savory in one dish? Genius. It was like a family dinner in Marrakech.
Desserts: Dessert was the grand finale, and boy, did they nail it. The Baklava was on point – layers of flaky goodness drenched in honey and pistachios. And let’s not forget the Rosewater and Cardamom Ice Cream. It was like a Middle Eastern breeze on my taste buds – refreshing and just the right amount of sweet.
Conclusion: Listen, if you’re into Middle Eastern grub or just looking for a cozy spot with killer food, Al-Bader is your jam. It’s not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary journey through Lebanon and Morocco. Go check it out, and get ready for a feast that’ll have you planning your next visit before you even leave. Al-Bader, you’ve won my heart (and stomach).
