Maha Bar's guest chef dinner series Middle East's Finest might have been rudely interrupted by the snap lockdown, but Shane Delia's serving you all an extra treat to make up for it. The legendary Tom Sarafian (Little Andorra, Bar Saracen) will be dropping by Maha East, joining Delia to whip up a special collaboration lunch this weekend.
On Saturday, July 3 and Sunday, July 4, the pair will hit the kitchen to deliver their Middle East Feast, which clocks in at $65 per person. It'll kick off with a modern meze spread starring the likes of lamb brik cigars, muhammara (roasted red pepper dip), and grilled Iraqi flat bread paired with za'atar and toum. Mains will include the likes of slow-cooked broad beans with tarator, and the poached chicken and smoked rice dish known as riz al djaj. And for dessert, a riff on Turkish-style rice pudding comes matched with marshmallow ice cream.
Spots are limited and bookings are a must.
