Afluka

Jaffa, Tel Aviv, Israel

Afluka is a middle eastern restaurant located in Jaffa, Israel. They offer fairly typical middle eastern food. When we visited (around 6:00pm on a Monday), the restaurant was completely empty.

Service

Inside Afluka Restaurant

When we sat down, a huge selection of "salads" were brought out for us. What a selection! When we had finished, we had to go find someone to pay; nobody came to our table to ask if we were finished.

Cost

The prices were fairly average for the area, I think. Most entrees were around 60 NIS.

Items Ordered

Salads

Salad selection

In most middle eastern restaurants, it's customary for them to bring out a selection of "salads" (which can be actual "American" salads, or small dishes of vegetables, or pickled things). At Afluka, they brought out a huge selection - I think I counted 18 separate dishes with different things on them. Some of them were quite good, and others I didn't enjoy so much, but there sure was a large selection!

Kebab

Lamb Kebab

This kebab was made of lamb meat, and was pretty good. The pieces of lamb on the skewer were fairly thin, so although the two skewers looks like a lot, I found that it was actually a pretty good portion of meat for a single person. The lamb meat was nicely seasoned.

The skewers were also served with french fries, which I thought was a bit strange - I don't think they're a traditional middle eastern food.
