Al-Hakkorah Alboostan: A Treat from Lebanon – Restaurant Review

 

The Menu:  View Menu
On another Boring night on Staten Island… Yep, we have a lot of those… We have decided to try out a pretty new restaurant that has been open for about 6 months, Also in the mood for something different and something exciting we decided the newest opened “Hookah Bar” on Bay Street.  We sat ourselves very comfortably in the second dining room (in the back) and had a nice large theater style T.V screen which was playing (Belly Dancing) and gave this restaurant the “Authentic” Middle Eastern Feel.

We have started the night off with a few drinks while waiting for a couple of friends to join us, during this time we were browsing through the menu and everything was sounding delicious at this point and by the time ordering has came we went with the (Baba Ghanoug, Hummus, Green Salads and the Al Boostan Grill: Lamb Chops, Kofta, Shish Kabob & Chicken Grilled).   The food was delicious and so was the presentation, the salads were very thin cut (very unique style) and was better then many regular salads you get elsewhere,  The Hummus & Baba Ghanoug was made from eggplant and created a nice filling flavour to enjoy on the grilled pita bread.  The mix meat grill was a final presentation straw and topped the salads and appetizers as a final great, Everything was laid out perfect, rice in the middle, all the meat in blocks surrounding the plate a very nice portion that everybody at the table was picking at.  We have also enjoyed a few drinks, one that I never tried before “Juicy Pussy”, I know it has Bialey’s but don’t know the full recipe or all of the ingredients, But be-careful: The drinks may create a hefty bill.

We have not gotten to the best part yet:  The Hookah, which I have never really tried before (but always open to new things), was a great treat that was ordered during our meal and enjoyed by everyone at the table.  The hookah looks to be very high quality and the tobacco is always replaced for you and cleaned out. 

The Report:

The Atmosphere: Great unique design, very comfortable couch & seats, nice large (theater style) T.V with authentic Middle Eastern “Belly Dancing” playing.
The Service:  Very knowledgeable and polite staff, always there when you need them.
The Food: Delicious Appetizers, Great Portions, Delicious Meat, Great Cooking & Preparation.
The Treat:  The Hookah is very enjoyable during and after your meal.
The Price:Moderate Food Price and a Tremendously High Drink Price (12$ for Malibu Bay-breeze, 10$ for Cocktails?)

Overall-Sum Up:This place can be enjoyed at any time and can fit any kind of requirements, whether it would be romantic or just a hang out with friends type of establishment.  We also should appreciate the diversity that people are trying to bring and keep on the Island, So next time you are in the mood to try something different, go ahead give Al Hakkorah Alboostan a go.
