Star Provisions — Maple Donut

Speckled with bacon and covered in maple glaze, this donut is close to perfection. At first sight, it appears to be a standard donut. But, the first bite welcomes you with a delicate bite, filled with air bubbles, rich with flavor and just enough substance to maintain its structure. It possesses the […]

Jerusalem Bakery & Deli

Chicken Shawarma with pickled vegetables and hummus

We loved this! The flavors were incredible. The combination of moist chicken layered with spices, hummus, and pickled vegetables were just about perfect. We also received a generous serving of paper thin pitas as part of the platter.
