It seemed ages ago that I last had a new post. It's not that I haven't been doing anything. I have in fact, been eating, baking and going out. Just that it takes greater effort to blog nowadays.
Anyways, around two weeks ago, Stella, Elise and I went to Kazbah for dinner. I remember it was a rainy night, Stella just had her first day working at Victoire. Therefore this is sort of a celebratory dinner for her.
Having did my homework reading up on Kazbah on Ja's blog, I have already decided what I wanted to eat. I wanted the lamb that made Ja cried tears of happiness. I want to cry my own tears of happiness too. We had the two course deal, which for $45, you get a mix starter plate to share, a main course and a glass of wine.
The obligatory bread course: two kinds of dukkah (herb and nuts) and olive oil with a single slice of turkish flat bread. I like the dukkah, I love the nut version.

Unfortunately, the lights in Kazbah were not conducive for photography. This is the best I could do... They had an open kitchen.
Kazbah's Mixed Mezze plate to share- (from bottom left, clockwise) Chickpea and raisins with shredded lamb, Honey sesame chicken wings, Crackers and dips (
In Heidi's food book, salt should be complimented by sugar, and sugar should be complimented by sour and sometimes bitter. It's like there was something lacking in flavour in the lamb, which was rather disappointing really. I had such high hopes for the lamb.
Overall, despite the flops, we had a good time there. Company was great, waitstaff were friendly and the starters were amazing. If I ever go back, I'd probably be back for their famous breakfast tagines.

Hey I was here recently as well! Didn't get to try quite as many dishes as you guys did so I might have to go back for more :)
When did you go? For breakfast or dinner? Their starters were really good. Still dreaming of their smoked salmon hummus...
