Meat, minced garlic, lady fingers and more filo pastry that you could throw a stick at.  The Alphabet Club ventured to Emma’s on Liberty in Enmore this time to sample some tasty Lebanese treats.  Personally, I’ve been hanging to go here for some time.  I love the multiple courses of medditeranean food and Emma’s didn’t disappoint.

Who was there:

  • Dave
  • Greg
  • Neil
  • Michelle
  • Jason
  • Jody
  • Craig
  • Brigit
  • Julie

We had* the banquet consisting of**:

  • Plenty of lebanese bread with hummous, tabouli, baba ganoush and falafel
  • A bbq chicken thing with minced garlic
  • A toasted cauliflower thing with some spices on it
  • Garlic and coriander potato cubes (Yum!)
  • A roasted aubergine*** in tomato thing
  • Lamb skewers (thing)
  • Ladies Fingers (Very nicely spiced lamb? mince in baked int filo pastry - think spring roll)
  • Baby Fig, Honey and Yoghurt
  • Baclava, some with a side of vanilla icecream, some dipped in chocolate

Did I miss anything?

I’d go back.  Would you?

* nb. I’m notorious for not remembering what I’ve eaten after I’ve eaten it.  I remember it tasted good though!

** nb2. Of course these are the formal names of the dishes on the menu

*** nb3. I just wanted to say aubergine rather than eggplant because it makes me feel special.

As with most timing issues, we have an issue of timing.  The Alphabet Club now has a website.  The Alphabet club has been going for two years.  The Alphabet Club is up to “L” after starting at “A”.  What to do?  We’ll just need to get everone to post their alphabet club submissions.  We’ll also need to get President McPerrett to update the charter to relfect recording the event for posterity.  He loves writing policy.
