Ty at the front counter was very welcoming and helped me decide on the Shakshuka which is two eggs poached in a stew of tomatoes and peppers with a side of pita. I decided to have Sautéed Spinach and Feta added which was one of two varieties of this dish other than "classic." The other choice was Lamb and Okra.
Ty suggested it as a hearty and comforting choice for a chilly rainy day. I'm glad I took his advice. The tomato and pepper stew was seasoned perfectly. The spinach and feta and poached eggs were just the right amount of filling and the whole dish warmed me physically and emotionally. The pita was fresh, plump, and soft and perfect for dipping in my yolks and stew.
The decor is subdued and pleasant with inoffensive lighting, ambient music, and enough indistinct chatter to make my solo dinner not feel lonely at all.
Shuk also serves Hummus, Muhamara (blend of roasted red peppers and walnuts), and whipped Feta dips, as well as a well considered variety of brunch, dinner, salad, sauce, finger food, and appetizer selections. A full coffee, tea, wine, beer, and creative cocktail menu completes the experience.
Oh, and one more thing. I ordered Moroccan mint tea. It came in an infuser pot with a tea timer. And after the two minutes I was told to wait, it was YUM!
