    I ate here one night and thought it was good. The restaurant itself was nice, clean and modern and…read moreon a weeknight was mostly empty. I liked the food this middle eastern restaurant served, but I thought they charged more for it than it was worth. For $26, I got the Kafta, which is 3 skewers of lamb and beef mixed together served with a yogurt sauce for dipping, 3 small potatoes on a skewer and a small side salad. It cost twice what I had for lunch that day and was of similar quality and quantity. The meat skewers were good, but the potatoes were undercooked. So I guess I'd say the food is good (not great), but they charge too much.

    Saffron is upscale Mediterranean with an attention to service. I normally think of "Greek food" for…read morethis kind of restaurant, and this distinguished itself as both Lebanese and the kind of establishment one could respectably dress up for and take a hot date. The dinner banquet ($39/person, $45/person with dessert) was a bombardment of: - Dips with bread: Excellent beetroot, carrot and hummus. Be careful - it is tempting and all too easy to fill up on the bread. Resist! - Entree sampler: Unremarkable. - Mains: Well-season kebabs, mince meat and pork chops on the bone. We had been recommended the last item and it did not disappoint. - Salad: Unremarkable. - Dessert: Great baklava and halwa. I learned I personally like the Asian version of the floss dessert better than the Turkish one. To disclose, we had been sent here by a family member of the owner and we did end up with post-meal coffee and dessert comped, but it was icing on what was already one of the best dining experiences we had in a week in Canberra. A bit expensive unless for an occasion or with an expense account, but that happens often enough in the government seat that it's worth the trip to the suburbs.

    Saturday lunch was a lamb kebab from the new Belco Halal Kebabs and Pizzeria on Lathlain Street in…read moreWestfield Belconnen. Video at https://yummylummy.com/YT2019-09-28 I'm grateful to Elias aka @CBRFoodie and Amelia aka @EatCanberra for their recommendation. Belco Halal Kebabs & Pizzeria is within walking distance of where I live so I went there today at lunch time and bought a lamb kebab with all the salad and sour cream. It was so hot when it was handed to me it nearly scalded my hand. It was then I decided to walk home and eat it so it could cool down a little. It was a good decision in my opinion. It gave me an opportunity to photograph this kebab in all its glory. Oh. My. God. This kebab is huge. It's no surprise given this shop had its foundation in the Yarralumla Turkish Halal Pide House. I could barely get my two hands around its girth let along get my mouth around it. For twelve dollars this was value for money compared with lots of other kebabs I've eaten in my time on earth. There was so much lamb. There was a good kick of spice. There was just the right amount of sour cream. It took me a few minutes to eat the whole kebab and it was worth eating it all in one go. I didn't quite finish all the meat because there was some stuck to the aluminium foil. I can highly recommend the Belco Halal Kebabs and Pizzeria. Give it a go and tell me what you think.
