Menara has been a big favourite for quite a while, but none of us had been for some time, so it was a real treat to return and find that the food there is tastier than ever. Best of all are the cheese sambousek which may be the best I've had in London: there's a deep savouriness and spiciness to them, with a spice we couldn't quite identify at work, and they prove that there can be a great variety in styles of excellent sambousek (from the complex versions here to the equally wonderful, simpler stringy cheese and chives versions found in Abu Zaad). We also had a plate of grilled halloumi for the first time here and the chips were really stellar. Knocked back with a bottle of Moroccan red and some mint shisha, this was a fine evening.
