Food!

The Scene: We are about the see Girl on an Alter. We have time but not very much. There is food all around, but I cannot seem to find anything appealing. The group that I usually hang out with sees a Shawarma place. My heart drops. I have the palette of a 12-year-old.  

We enter Go Mezza, and I am very nervous as I have *the most* sensitive stomach known to man. I begin to look at the menu and I am nervous at first, dishes I have not heard of go across my eyes, dish after dish of unfamiliarity. Suddenly I am saved as I see something I recognize. Chicken. Normal good ole fashioned chicken (kind of you get what I am trying to say). I gaze at something called a Chicken Grill Box and my stomach rumbles. Without properly reading all that is included, I order.

Plate after plate gets served to our group. One thing is immediately made clear; this was about to be the best meal I had eaten on the whole trip. I look at my phone and we have maybe ten minutes until we meet at the theatre. I finally get my food last, and I am far from disappointed. There are two differently seasoned chicken kebabs, six chicken wings, fries, a small salad type deal more along the lines of coleslaw without the mayo, and a large piece of pita bread.

Within the first bite, I was gone. It was probably the best dish that I have consumed in years. The flavor began to fill my body in a symphony of spice with a dash of deliciousness on the side. Braedon not wanting a full meal asks for some and this leads to me one by one handing them my wings. I am so glad that I stepped out of my comfort zone and got something I typically wouldn’t because it ended up being the best food on the trip…so far.
