Tahina

September 5, 2015

We were tipped off past times a distich of dissimilar friends most the recent opening of Tahina, a vego Israeli house that's of late popped upwards on High Street inward Northcote. We were on a weekend mission to Preston to larn merely about La Panella pies, together with Tahina was the perfect pit-stop along the way.


It's a cosy piddling house alongside counter seating for perchance sixteen people, suggesting that they're hoping for a big takeaway trade. The card is divide betwixt savoury Middle Eastern delights together with an array of smoothies. Food-wise there's 2 kinds of falafel, 3 kinds of shakshuka summation a bunch of salads together with pita pockets. It's all veg together with super vegan-friendly - fifty-fifty the shakshuka tin plow over the axe hold upwards veganised, alongside eggplant swapped inward for the eggs. 

Cindy couldn't resist sampling something off the smoothie card - the Monte Carlo was a vegan mix of strawberries, cashews, oats, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, almond milk together with H2O ice ($10).


This was almost a repast inward itself! She thoroughly enjoyed this creamy-berry-nutty concoction.

We weighed upwards the shakshuka, but decided instead to larn all vegan. The mixed falafel platter came alongside both light-green (parsley, coriander together with mint) together with cerise (chilli together with cerise peppers) falafels, along alongside Israeli salad, pickled cabbage together with tahini sauce ($12). They threw inward merely about pita staff of life ($2 extra).


The falafels were fantastic, a big pace upwards from the dry out offerings at Bowery to Williamsburg. The mixed platter was a fleck of a random sample, alongside 5 cerise falafels together with merely 1 light-green - non to worry though, the cerise falafels were elevation notch, alongside a decent chilli kick. The accompaniments were swell equally well, together with the staff of life was incredible - this is a damn fine $14 meal.

Even improve was the other dish nosotros ordered: the cauliflower papiot ($7), a whole roasted babe cauliflower alongside garlic, rosemary, thyme together with lemon, alongside a tahini-based sauce on elevation together with a big slathering of hummus underneath.


The cauliflower was charred to inside an inch of its life - tender together with smoky, alongside enough of tang from the tahini together with lemon. This seems similar it'd hold upwards pretty slow to endeavor at habitation - we've been on a fleck of a ringlet with cauliflower lately, but this merely most takes the cake.

There are a distich of desserts to guide from - Mankoushe - nosotros can't await to larn dorsum together with endeavor to a greater extent than of the menu!
