Al Aseel - Review - Mid West - Houston - The Infatuation

"Everything at this Palestinian restaurant in the Mid-West neighborhood is worth waiting for, especially the chicken. The service here can be inconsistent, but that doesn’t matter when the za’atar-spiced, extra-crispy fried chicken arrives. Plated over a bed of fluffy rice and fresh cucumber salad, this chicken will make you question why you aren’t always eating fried chicken this way. Especially if you order the mixed mezze with nutty hummus, tangy labneh, and baba ghanoush, each of which only makes the chicken taste that much better. photo credit: Quit Nguyen photo credit: Quit Nguyen photo credit: Quit Nguyen photo credit: Quit Nguyen Pause Unmute" - Chelsea Thomas
