Almina’s – The Discovery of Centuries Old Mediterranean Flavours

The Discovery

I visited Almina’s on Gawler Place for the first time with my family. This business has been around for over 35 years. We were delighted with the freshness of the Lebanese food. The dishes were well presented and tasted delicious (even my daughter says so!)

The (amazing) platters make for a really great experience as sharing them with a group made it a lot more social than just having one dish per person.

The platter we shared was the Traditional Lebanese Breakfast which had the Foul Medammes – fava beans cooked in spices and tomato. It was surprisingly tasty with the flatbreads and the Fattah was good too. We added some poached eggs which were cooked perfectly, so my daughter was happy to be able to dip the flatbread in the yolk! #yolkporn

We finished our breakfast with a Turkish coffee and some baklava. They have a quite an impressive range of sweets from just $2 per piece!

The friendly staff made our experience very enjoyable. Almina’s is well worth your visit if you’re in the Adelaide city. Or you can order their treats online – how cool!
