When we sat down at our table Papa Soro immediately joined us, brought out an amazing bottle of wine to accompany our meal and asked if there was anything in particular we wanted to order. We told him that we would eat anything he prepared for us and he disappeared, bringing back a huge selection of his favorite items on the menu. We started off with the Fattoush salad made with toasted pieces of pita bread combined with mixed greens and other vegetables tossed in the perfect amount of dressing. Then tried three flavors of homemade Hummus- traditional, red bell pepper, jalapeno cilantro, all served with straight-from-the-oven pita bread.
This was by far the BEST hummus I have ever had and when I told Papa Soro this he proceeded to plant a big one on me. Accordingly to our waiter, we are now part of the family. We tasted pickled turnips and cabbage as well as Falafel served in a pita, topped with hot and tahini-based sauces. From there we enjoyed Shrimp Curry and a favorite at Soro’s, the Filet with mushroom burgundy sauce, which melts in your mouth! We finished it off with Stuffed Grape Leaves and Basmati rice. At several times during the meal our waiter asked if we were finished or wanted a box for what we hadn’t eaten but by the end, we had pretty much polished off the platter!
