Zac's (Closed)

Had my lunch at Zac's Restaurant. Hibiscus Drink - Sour but refreshing. Tasted abit like ribena but with a floral taste. Moroccan Soup - Although the soup was quite clear, but it had quite a strong taste of mutton. Quite a fair bit of vegetables which you can find in a minestrone soup. Lamb Shank with Rice - The lamb shank was huge and very tender. You can literally tear off the meat with a fork. The rice was nicely cooked with very nice olive favor.Overall it was quite a nice place to dine in.…Read More

As someone who had stayed in that region before, I was shocked to see the waraq inab or rice wrapped with grapevines to be served icy cold and in just a very little portion with the price of $8 for 8 rolls. The Arabs served them hot like other rice dishes.For the tea,when serving; it should be put in small teapots and should be really hot. It will slowly cool once it is poured into small cups. That's the use of those small cups, to cool the tea. However, at Zac, it was served lukewarm so by the time the customer finishes the food, it will be half cold. The staff did not seem to communicate well and didn't seem to work as a team, you could see that from their body language. One of those who served me was a Filipino lady, who seemed not able to understand instructions.

It made we wonder, were they cooking or was there a party back there? Need loads of improvement in staff training…Read More
