    This is a great authentic family run restaurant with simple and really tasty food. Starters, mains and baklava were all excellent. Grilled meat is cooked on a charcoal fire and slow cooked vegetable tagines are equally enjoyable. In a town of global and monopoly brands this is worth a regular visit.
