Lamb Kebab Wrap
This place was recommended to me by a close friend to try, so I made a point to drop by today, and I'm extremely glad I made that choice.
Oftentimes when I have a wrap, I usually don't think much of it, it doesn't remind me of what I've had in Paris or in Montreal, referring to the Shawarma trucks.
When I came inside, I asked the gentleman behind the counter what is a popular recommendation, what meat choice is fresh and so forth.
The chicken shawarma was recommended, as a wrap, that wasn't my first choice I was thinking in my head but I wanted to go with what they were suggesting, and I'm glad that I did. They told me that it would be pretty garlicky and if I was okay with that, and optionally there are onions that he would add too, and I said give me everything.
I added a side of hummus as well, which came with pita bread, as I usually like to try people's hummus when I can.
I sat down, small cafe like environment, with some great looking hand-painted murals of Aleppo and Armenia, which I did learn it was by local artist which made me really excited. Lunch time, weekday, not crowded, got lucky on the parking.
I first got my hummus served first, it was a delight, and I specially love the thin pita bread, that was tender and fresh not hard like a old piece of sunbaked cardboard.
While sipping my diet coke, I got lost in the painting in front of me which was a village in armenia, completely mesmerizing in terms of energy.
Moments later my wrap was served, and I was excited, because it wasn't the big hard pita bread wrap that I often times see here in the east coast, at least in the Greater Boston area, and it was tightly wrapped, what I mean is it was condensed and tight, not loose and airy, as those loose and airy wraps I often times get falls apart in my hands and pretty much it's a poor eating experience.
And I'm glad I got the onions, it's pretty much my first rap that I've eaten here in the Greater Boston area that really sung a wonderful song in my heart, from a foodie to a foodie, this isn't your regular chicken shawarma wrap. It actually didn't remind me of what I usually think of chicken from would taste like, which oftentimes carry the traditional American trappings of iceberg lettuce, and common and mundane ingredients.
This had ingredients that I am not natively familiar with, I don't know if it's sumac or a mysterious sauce I haven't tried yet but the onions and the other vegetable like ingredients which I should have paid attention to, a very bright contrasting backdrop against the chicken, which was amazing in its own right, although I'm not a chicken guy, the whole collective eating experience was new to me at least here in america. And dare I say, unlike a meat wrap with veggies that oftentimes boring wraps are, this had the feeling of a medicinal quality, and a feeling of the food temperatures like hot and colds, that often times European cultures in folk, as well as Chinese cultures. Exciting ingredient play that works off of each other that were both sublime, with a deceptive front pallet attack. The garlic oil which the gentleman described was, simply a lot of garlic, really is yet another level of wrap of the whole food experience.
tldr; an exciting gem of a place in which my wrap experience superseded anything I've had here in New England thus far.

Chicken Shawarma Wrap
Absolutely outstanding chicken kebab. Perfectly marinated and cooked. Can’t wait to come back and try the lamb shish kebab. The seating area is modest because most of their business is catering, but it’s pleasant as are the staff.

Friendly service and consistently amazing food. The slow cooked beef (Ghavourma) is a group favorite and the falafel are always fresh. And never skip one or two moushabbak for later.

I love this place! The food is delicious and the service is quick! They are also so kind! Once I was waiting for food and commented that one of the desserts looked good and they offered me a sample - the sample was just a full dessert for no charge. Another time I called after placing and order to tell them we actually needed one of the meals to be gluten free and they were able to accommodate that and made my friend her own little platter - also at no additional charge! Highly recommend!
