Tanoreen, Middle Eastern Delights

There are so many cuisines to sample in Bay Ridge!  I’ll have to chip away at my list bit by bit.  Tonight it was Tanoreen, a Middle Eastern hot spot with marked vegan options on its flavor-packed menu.  To start, some pickled things and some flat breads.

We split two entrees, one being the Vegan Baked Eggplant: Layers of sliced eggplant, tomato, potato, onion, bell pepper & almonds with basmati rice.

and the Vegetarian Combo: Shulbato (bulgur wheat pilaf, tomato sauce, chickpeas, vegetables), lentil pilaf, veggie grape leaves, and a dandelion & tomato salad.  It was a lot of food, so I will have to incorporate leftovers in my week’s lunch. 

And for digestive ease, a sunset walk.
