Food Fridays: Mediterraneo offers delicious Middle Eastern

By Margaret Maka

If residence hall food or the contents of your apartment fridge has you bored, try a Middle Eastern dish from Mediterraneo. 

Mediterraneo, 122 E. Lincoln Highway, offers authentic Middle Eastern food like chicken schwarma and falafel. There are also many meat-free options like spinach pies and eggplant sandwiches. 

Mediterraneo also has lots of savory side dishes like tabouleh, baba ganouj and spanakopita. Mediterraneo sells beer and wine, along with other delicious non-alcoholic beverages such as homemade orange blossom lemonade and Moroccan mint tea. 

Mediterraneo’s brick walls are accented by its cozy candlelit atmosphere, making this the perfect date night or solo spot if you’re looking to treat yourself. Mediterraneo also offers online ordering through EatStreet. 

I recommend the thyma salad and toshka.
