Today, I am going to be talking about my favorite restaurant in Bahrain, Lumee Street Cafe. It is in the Al A'ali Mall in the Seef District. It is an Arabic restaurant that the website describes as "the new face of Middle Eastern flavors". I've been three or four times and it is so delicious every time, not to mention it is the cutest cafe. (Sorry for the photo quality, it was nighttime and I used my phone for the pictures.)
The hommos is the best I've ever had. It is so creamy and they serve it with warm bread. I recommend the "Beetroot Hommos". It tastes almost the same as the "Classic Hommos" (which is great also), but it's pink and I just like it more for some reason, I think it's a bit milder, most hommos has a taste that I'm not sure how to describe that I don't really like (bitter maybe?), but this does not.
For my main course, I usually get "Bahraini Lamb Kabab" which is my absolute favorite thing, it's amazing. I went last night and I got the "Tikka Lumee," just to try something new, but I wasn't a huge fan. I've had friends come with me and get the "Spicy Lamb Chops" and the "Chicken Kabab" and they loved both!
As for the deserts, I got a "Croissant Umm Ali" last night and my friend got the "Warm Rangeena Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream". They were both great. Umm Ali is like a bread pudding but with more flavor and spices and Rangeena is a date tart.
Everything is so wonderful at Lumee and I'd definitely recommend a trip!
