I have a strange love for Mediterranean Greek Lebanese food.  Seriously.  Having tried Yiannis, Parkallen Restaurant, Koutouki Taverna, Al Salam Bakery, Chateau Beirut, and La Shish Taouk, I can say that this is the absolute BEST restaurant out of all of them.  This is one of those restaurants where I just blindfold myself with the prices and just let the good times roll.  We went with a big group and my Lebanese friend did the ordering.  I was so pleasantly surprised by the hummus and baba ghanoush (eggplant hummus .  Multi-dimensional flavour especially with the eggplant.  It was garlicky and eggplanty at the same time.  There was also a smoky taste to it.  Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about but that's what it felt like to me.  I loved it!  The salad was also very fresh.  Green crisps, light but flavourful dressing... It's a great dish to balance some of the heavier flavours that came up later in the course.  The stuffed grape leaves were good too.  The meat dishes was when I stopped taking pictures and I just fully indulged myself.  The kibbeh, which I don't quite remember so much now, tasted good I'm sure.  I just don't remember eating a bad dish here.  Oh, last but not least, people were enjoying their shishas and that was probably the only thing that bothered me because I wasn't sure if it was exactly good for me or not.  Yeah I am a wuss.  Other than that, the service was quite good and the decor was elegant but casual at the same time.  I can't wait to come back with a Lebanese friend or someone who knows how to order for me. :

I stopped by Sahara Palace recently for a friend’s birthday. It’s a huge Lebanese restaurant located in Castledowns in the Northside. I wouldn’t have expected to find it there because it’s in a random strip mall area with a grocery store. I guess you can call it a hidden gem because the food was delicious! Their menu consists of soups and salads, hot and cold mezza (this means ‘small dishes’ in Middle Eastern cuisine), mashawi (grilled meats and vegetables), sandwiches, and main dishes.

I have regular to Sahara for the last 10 months and have been never disappointed, the food is great and service getting always better, I love eating at this place, I will recommend them to all of my friends
