Another place that is a long time regular family favorite that I have never reviewed. Way over due…read more I never realized how lucky we are in Raleigh to have so many good Arabic bakeries until I tried looking for them in bigger cities (Atlanta, Philly, D.C.) that are apparently completely bereft of good Arabic groceries. Jerusalem Bakery & Grocery has most of what you need for cooking Arabic food I will say flat out its the best pita bread on the east coast. When i visited other cities family there would ask me to bring pita bread when I came. The meat, cheese and spinach pies are fantastic. The cheese pies are my personal favorites. The family that owns this place is really nice, and will be even more pleased and solicitous if you show a genuine appreciation for their food. Oh, and they have a dessert that I can never remember the name of, but which is also wonderful and difficult to find - it's the one made of filo dough with cheese inside and attar (the sweet sticky sauce) on top. I have yet to see it anywhere else in the U.S, and they do a good job of it. Like many bakeries, they bake early in the morning and sell until its gone. So best selection and quantity is going to be in the mornings. For the visit on Jan 7, 2025, I got 3 meat pies, 12 cheese pies, 4 pita bread bags, and 1 sesame date cookie package which is also a favorite of mine. Total $51.14. An important pro tip is that the pies and pita bread all freeze great. so go ahead and eat 1 pie while its warm, because it likely will be, and then quickly freeze the rest. Then, warm it up in a toaster oven.

We so enjoyed our lunch today at Al-Basha! The chicken and lamb skewers were delicious. The chicken…read morewas the tenderest I've ever had. The sides were got were perfect with the kebabs.

Al Basha was a great experience! All of us ordered the chicken shawarma wrap combo, which came with…read morea wrap, fries, and coleslaw for around $13. It was a pretty generous amount of food for the price, and everything was solid. The shawarma was solid, the fries were good, and overall it was a satisfying lunch. Honestly, the food by itself was probably more of a 4-star experience for me, but the hospitality is what bumped this up to five stars. Every employee greeted us right when we walked in, and they even gave each of us a cup of their lentil soup to try, "on the house." Multiple employees also checked in during our meal to ask how everything was and whether we were enjoying the food. You could genuinely tell they cared about our experience, and that kind of hospitality goes a long way. Solid food, great value, and even better service. Definitely worth checking out!

We would never have known about it on our own. We saw the bread immediately, and it was the same price as at the Baghdad--($3/4 loaves). The rest of the shop was pretty much the same as most Mediterranean markets. They had lots of spices, a small meat counter, some nuts, cheeses and some frozen items. I was hoping to see a fresh olive bar (they are the "Olive Tree," after all!), but they didn't have one. Prices were reasonable, but the frozen foods prices seemed a bit on the high side.

I stopped into Weaver Street Market while staying nearby for business. A quick Yelp search brought…read moreit up so I looked and went over. The interior is nice and clean. There is space to navigate the aisles so you aren't on top of other patrons. The product selection is pretty good with a great variety of tofus, some I've not seen before. I.e pumpkin seed tofu, hemp seed tofu etc. They have a nice variety of things on the salad bar. However I had to really pick my way through the spinach as there were some pieces that were slimy. Hence I deducted a star for that. The hot bar looked good as well but I didn't try anything from it. Check out was quick and friendly. I enjoyed my time there and would go back again.
