Monday Munchies: A Mediterranean feast in Bentonville

🧆 You start off with a simple salad plus hummus, baba ghanoush, falafel and pita. The hummus is exceptionally creamy, the falafel well-seasoned and the baba ghanoush still not for those who aren't into eggplant. But I am not one of those people.

🫑 And then you get to share a platter of five different meats along with rice, potatoes and grilled vegetables.

🍗 In addition to a familiar chicken kebab, it comes with chicken kafta, which is ground meat with spices. And you'll get your fill of red meat with beef, lamb chops and adana. I'm a big fan of the spicy adana, a ground lamb.

🍷 Yes, but: You have to bring your own wine. They don't serve it but will give you a glass for $1.50. (Hey, you'll probably get out for cheaper than if you were to buy wine by the glass at a restaurant. 🤷‍♀️)

📍 Stop by: 10am-2pm and 5-9pm Monday-Thursday; 10am-2pm and 5-10pm Friday and Saturday at 1100 SE 14th St. in Bentonville
