A little mid-east treasure
Sunday, June 24, 2007
We stumbled upon Moustache Pitza after watching the Pride Parade for several hours. We got there about fifteen minutes before the parade marchers started pouring in. As quazi-vegetarians (2 legged meat and fish only), it is always a treat to find numerous tasty selections. The tabouli salad appetizer was wonderfully flavorful, fresh, filled with finely shredded greens, and it was so good that you would not tire of it by eating it all up.My partner ordered the eggplant salad which was equally tasty, and together on the amazingly fresh and light pita, it was a wonderful combination of flavors and textures.
Hi main course was a chicken kabob on pita, and mine was a falafel sandwich. It was the best falafel I have had, light, not dry and chewy, not overly spiced, with nice red tomatoes and fresh lettuce.
The Brooklyn Brown Ale was the perfect complement, and we topped off the meal sharing a milk flan with red berry sauce. A pleasant departure from traditional flan, a great finish to a very nice, and reasonably priced informal dinner. We look forward to returning.
Pros: Fresh food, informal middle eastern ambiance
Cons: indifferent service, but polite
