This place took me by complete surprise...in an amazing way. I was transported from Greensboro to…read morehalfway around the world for about 45min, and boy was it a great ride! Craving something Mediterranean, something international and authentic. Shish House popped up on my radar and I stopped in for an early weekday lunch. They have the usual and traditional Mediterranean dishes, but I wanted something different today. Went with some authentic Yemeni food. I ordered the Fahsah Lehm. This is a Saltah (traditional Yemeni stew) with melt in your mouth lamb that came out piping hot and bubbling in a clay bowl (see vid). You can feel, hear, smell and taste the authenticity in this dish. Spices and flavors flowing all over. It comes out with an amazing garlic sauce and a Yemeni style green sauce, almost like a salsa. And if that wasn't enough, you get the biggest clay oven bread (a Yemeni Malawah) you have ever seen. Words don't do it justice, see pics for details. This is honestly the perfect edible shovel. Tear some off, scoop up some bubbling lamb and spices, then drag it through the garlic and green sauce. Get messy...flavor the authenticity this dish explodes with. One of the best international experiences which transports you somewhere else. And it's just a small unassuming spot in the international corridor on Market St by Super G Mart. ***PLACES LIKE THIS DEFINE MY LOVE FOR FOOD, AND WHAT MORE FOOD CAN DO THAN JUST SATIATE HUNGER. TRULY AMAZING, AND A TRUE HIDDEN GEM.***

The menu is not too complicated. I ordered the chicken Sambosa. I think I would prefer if it was a vegetable Sambosa. I also ordered the lamb shawarma. It wasn't bad. I tasted my friend's hummus and tabbouleh. Both were good. The service was just ok. Our waitress dropped our drinks and food off and left us alone. The food wasn't bad. I think I would come again if I'm in the area. The mint lemonade was delicious. There isn't much to the decor or ambiance.

My son gets fish sandwiches everywhere they have them and this is his absolute favorite. It's super crispy and a great textural combo with the bread.

The food is always fresh, the guys are always working hard in the back and the service at the ordering desk is friendly. The prices are great and the portions are HUGE. We always have leftovers for lunch the next day. It's a little run down on the inside but fortunately doesn't affect the food It's large and roomy and they do have a lot of booths and tables. Make sure you check out the bakery next door!

Once you peep their prices on some imported items - such as roasted red peppers, kalamata olives, feta cheese, and olive oil - you'll laugh at the fools paying the regular grocery store prices. The BEST dates!! I grew up on pretty delicious dates my dad used to bulk order from a food cooperative, and I've had a hard time in the past several years finding decent dates - the standard U.S. pitted type are always horribly dry, and most others are too (and, yech, I can't stand those dry poopy pellet looking rolls covered in flour). I've looked all over town - including several other groceries of this genre - and been disappointed, until El Baraka! They don't always have a shipment in, but check in the glass case at the counter for the black box - those are the dates imported from Lebanon, I believe the proprietor said. For the juiciest dates I've ever had (they were literally oozing, and still on the stems!), $4/lb was an ultimate bargain. Lastly, this pesky pescatarian can't tell you much about the fresh meat counter, but the smells are good and it's all halal (that is, in accordance with Muslim law). Additionally, one side of the store has other retail items, like soaps and knick knacks and clothing.

Their prices are not as competitive as they were last year; however, there are NO other places you can go to purchase the quality of meat, olives, sauces, soap, beef bacon, beef pepperoni and Moroccan bread in the Triad area. I will give you an example. I bought an organic chicken and organic chicken wings from Earth Fare. My husband and I were excited. We fried the chicken wings, in Avocado oil, and sat down to eat. We took about (2) bites and spit it out. It tasted horrible. So disappointed, we ran over to El Baraka and bought (3) lbs. of chicken wings. They were stellar!!! We ended up giving away the whole chicken and chicken wings from Earth Fare. I have not bought ANY meat ANYWHERE else since. They also have an abundance of herbs and spices such as, Turmeric, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Cumin etc. By the way...we have never been disappointed with any purchase.
