From our oven

The bread is the whole story.

Great falafel deserves great bread. That's why we bake our own pita right here in the kitchen — soft, chewy and still warm when it reaches your plate.

Rows of hand-shaped pita dough rounds dusted with flour on a steel counter
01

Shaped by hand

Every morning the dough is divided, rounded and pressed flat on a floured steel bench, one disc at a time.

Into the fire

The rounds go straight onto the hot deck of our oven, where the blast of heat turns the water in the dough into steam.

Pita breads puffed up into round pockets inside the oven

The puff

Within minutes they balloon into soft, hollow pockets — ready to be split and filled while still warm.

Soft, chewy, still warm.

Fresh pita, every day — the base for every plate and wrap we serve.

“The most authentic Middle Eastern food I've had in Sri Lanka! The hummus is incredibly creamy and the falafel is perfectly crispy. The flavors transport you straight to the Mediterranean.”

“As someone from the Middle East, I can confidently say this is the real deal. The shawarma reminds me of home, and the portions are generous. The staff is always welcoming and friendly.”

“I order from here at least twice a week! The shakshuka is my absolute favorite - perfectly spiced and always fresh. The delivery through Uber Eats is quick and the food arrives hot.”
