Damascene cuisine in Shepherd's Bush, without doubt some of the finest food of it's kind in London and at half the price you would expect.
I haven't been to Damascus or Syria for that matter but probably don't need to now I've found this gem.
Wonderfully helpful staff and a wide range of well made and very fresh food. Everything comes with tasty flat bread, which they make fresh on the premises. Great grills, my favourite being the chicken shawarma. They don't do a lamb shawarma, I don't know why.
The starters include all the normal mezze type items you would expect, hommos, makadous, moutabal, tabbouleh, hara isbah, warek inab, foul mukalla, bamieh-bil-zeit and of course baba ganouj.
Desserts are all sweet and sticky, and very authentic.
Freshly squeezed fruit juices are very nice alternative to wine.
