However, the modesty of the interior and the work of the establishment’s employees are overshadowed by the food that is prepared here. “The veal kebab and lamb shanks made me fall in love with meat. I'm usually on a plant-based diet, but I was craving juicy pieces of meat served on silver daggers. The meat has a smoky, roasted flavor that makes you feel ecstatic,” he writes.
