๐ OC | Flavor-Packed Lamb Mandi That Won't Break the Bank!
Prepare to be amazed by this huge platter of Lamb Mandi for just $27โa steal considering it can easily feed 2-3 grown men (or 3-4 of me! ๐). The fall-off-the-bone tender lamb is slow-cooked to perfection, infused with aromatic spices, and served atop fragrant rice studded with plump raisins and crunchy nuts for that perfect sweet-savory combo. ๐คคโจ Every bite is an explosion of Middle Eastern flavors thatโll have you reaching for more! ๐ฎ Sweet Endings & Must-Try Sides ๐ธ Crรจme Brรปlรฉe โ The caramelized top is shatteringly crisp, while the custard beneath is luxuriously smooth and sweet. A classic done right! ๐ธ Sabaya โ Think of this as the Yemeni version of a honey-drenched flatbreadโwarm, flaky, and absolutely addictive when drizzled with golden honey. ๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ธ Naan โ We spotted this at the next table, and the aroma alone was irresistible! Giant, pillowy, and perfect for sharing (though we were too stuffed to try it this time). ๐ฅญ Drinks & Atmosphere The mango lassi was thick, creamy, and authentically tangyโa refreshing contrast to the rich mains. ๐ฅ๐น Just a heads-up: While the food is reasonably priced, the drinks lean slightly pricier than average. The restaurant itself is a vibrant escapeโthink ornate lanterns, traditional music, and cozy indoor/outdoor seating that makes you feel like youโve stepped into a bustling Yemeni eatery. ๐ถ๐ฟ The service? A tad slow but friendly, so relax and soak in the ambiance! ๐ The Spot: House of Mandi ๐ 518 S Brookhurst St #1, Anaheim, CA 92804 This hidden gem is worth the drive for the Lamb Mandi alone.
