Sat on Sandycombe Road in the Richmond area of London, Palmyra combines authentic Lebanese food with a stylish setting and a relaxed atmosphere to make for a superb casual dining experience. Now able to enjoy such at a fantastic discount when they call in advance and produce their card upon arrival, Gourmet Society members are among those offered a warm welcome at the restaurant.
Palmyra use only the finest of fresh ingredients in the creation of their dishes, providing a wealth of mouth-watering flavours on a menu that is fit to meet many a palate requirement. This begins with the scrumptious mezze options, which include all of the traditional favourites, such as the hummus, falafel and shawarma, as well as a host of lesser known delights. Other particularly tempting examples of such are the minced lamb stuffed baked pastry known as the sfiha, the prawns Palmyra, served with lettuce, garlic, oil, and a lemon dressing, and the spicy potato based batata harrah.
Following, the main course selection is just as enjoyable and incorporates an array of delectable plates of food. From the glorious tahina sauce drizzled sea bass and the divine Palmyra mixed fish platter of salmon, cod and queen scallops, to the meat lovers heaven that is the chicken and lamb adorned mixed grill and the vegetarian treat that is the okra with rice, all appetites are sufficiently catered for.
Whether it’s for an informal meal with the significant other, a catch up with some friends, or a conclusion to a day of exploration in England’s capital city, all are invited in with open arms at Palmyra.
