Sandra RubinchikMarch 17, 2023A winding bookshop with the funniest layout because it absorbed what used to be a gas station and other adjoining buildings. Great selection and loveliest staff!

"Start with the 3 or 4 starter sampler then split a Sharma or kabob. The food here is very authentic. This coming from a world traveller who loves the food in Beirut, Jerusalem, Amman and Ramallah."
