Lunching in Novi.I was jonesing for shawarma and fattoush today. Fortunately, this place was close, open & easy to find.Found a parking spot right out front and, since the lunch was over, a wide-open restaurant. Sometimes it feels odd to be the only diner in a place. Not today.The service was terrific. Attentive without hovering.The look was a bit different. I saw several Egyptian references in the decor. Nothing wrong with that, just uncommon in my experience. Fits with the name though.Ordered a small fattoush ($8). A couple bucks more than I typically see it for but, we are in Novi. That dressing is magical. Simple but exactly what is needed.Decided to go with a Shish Tawook sandwich ($8) instead of shawarma. The grilled chicken was delicious. Tasty, moist, tender.And with the hot, and I mean HOT out of the oven, bread & garlic dip/spread (so good!), I left full. Dinner will be a snack at best.Yes, I spent $20 on lunch with tip & only drank water. Not feeling guilty, though. Food was wonderful across the board.
