We stumbled into Simplicity in Greytown for a late lunch around 3pm, and despite being between service times, the owner greeted us warmly and graciously allowed us to order from the dinner menu. That kind of hospitality is rare—and deeply appreciated.

The menu is varied with dishes having a Moroccan flavour to Middle Eastern cuisine or an Indian curry or even some European dishes. I would thoroughly recommend this little gem in the middle...

I recently dined at Arabesque and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped by an inviting and elegant atmosphere. The ambient lighting, tasteful decor, and soothing background music set the perfect tone for an unforgettable evening.
