Restaurant Review - Petra

Measurable to my last blog of Saffron Restaurant and its hummus, with two restaurants in town, Petra is definitely stirring up some deliciousness in their pita bread and hummus mix. This cozy Arabic restaurant located in Itaewon can definitely measure up to the food that I have back at home. It does help to satisfy those cravings that I have. 

The must order dishes is their pita bread along with their mixed plate of spreads (to the right). This includes the hummus (chickpea spread), the babganoush (ground eggplant with a mix of spices), and the yogurt sauce which is like a sour cream spread. All topped with olive oil and a garnish, the plate is practically licked clean. 

I also suggest ordering their grilled chicken, strawberry yogurt drink and of course the falafel which the deep fried ball of deliciousness. Top it with their vegetable mix and hot sauce, you're mouth will bounce off of walls. 

The restaurant has phenomenal service with many foreigners and locals who constantly visit for a good meal. The staff is extremely friendly and service is extremely quick. Another additional benefit of the restaurant is that they do not serve alcohol, they allow you to bring your own. It's definitely great for anyone who is looking for a great dinner with cheap drinks.
