Honest verdict on Kafta — good but not exceptional
Kafta here was solidly made — bright and balanced without anything to complain about. za'atar was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have.
the cuisine shares roots with the broader Levantine tradition. The a mezze spread for a large gathering atmosphere was pleasant enough. Lebanese wine was available and a good suggestion. For a reliable version of Kafta this works. For an exceptional one, I'd keep looking. Three stars.
