At 6.30 pm., we were the first table in the restaurant. The decoration is so beautiful and charming.
3 courses for $25, the dishes were served in a "share style". All the food name is so difficult to pronounce or remember, I knew just a few dishes. When we sat down, the friendly waiter served us the table water from the very nice jug followed by Turkish bread with olive oil and dukkha.
Mezzes
There were Oohh and Aahhh when the first dish came. The presentation were so impressive. It consists of :
Only thing I remember is it was nice starter.
Ras el Hanout Kataifi Prawns & Muhamara Sauce
This were so nice. The rice noodle outside were crisp but not too oily at all. The prawn were super fresh, and a little bit spicy from the sauce...

Char-grilled Quail & Pomegranate Sauce
The quail were cooked beautifully. Ping and Ta really like it so much. The pomegranate sauce was a bit sweet and sour, made the dish interesting.
Dips : Hummus, Taramasalata, Babaganouj
I love it all, even Taramasalata was a bit fishy but all was very yummy.
When we finished the dish, we were so excited about the coming main.
Happy meal, happy girls !
The plate was so pretty..hehe
Main 1 : Casablanca Royale Slow Roasted Lamb Shoulder, Braised Vegetables, Sultana Jam, Steamed Couscous
THIS WAS AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL DISH ! We all love it, and still dream about it everyday. It was really nice until I wanted to give it my tears (of happiness...hahahahha)
Condiments : Chillis, Preserved Lemon and Yoghurt
I like the lemon, when eat the lamb with all condiments, tasty ! (having it alone also very nice already)
Super tender and delicious.
First time I saw the dish, it looked like nothing special but Kazbah is not disappointing, the tasty juicy meat and crisp skin satisfied us.
Desserts
Fig & Halawa Bisteeya with White Peach Sorbet
Sahleb - Middle Eastern Milk Pudding, Fresh Berry Compote
Quince & Almond Tart with White Peach Sorbet
All were great again, I really like the peach sorbet, super refreshing !
The service is very friendly and the food was absolutely wonderful. It is the place I would love to take my family, friends or visitor to try. Such a memorable meal. Definitely come back for thier famous breakfast and more dinner.
