Kebabs in Mumbles

Mediterranean Restaurant 640 Mumbles Road, The Mumbles, Swansea SA3 4EA

You might say that a two hour return drive for a kebab a bit extravagant ? I disagree ! Being as I am a huge fan of some of the lebanese restaurants in London and have very fond memories of donner kebabs whilst working away I have wanted to try this Turkish style restaurant for a while.

The Mediterranean is probably far more buzzing and atmospheric by night and probably warmer.  But we were met and served professionally and courteously by a smart gentleman named Alex.  I did my usual of ignoring any menu and asking for recommendations.

My lamb shish kebab was excellent and tender and my son and wife chose a mixture of Adana and Tavuk Beyti spiced Kebabs all grilled over the charcoal in the open kitchen next to us.

I enjoyed this experience and authenticity of the food.  I like it when restaurants play their national music and the Chefs don't speak english.

The baklava to follow was superbly fresh and homemade, with the strong turkish coffee a stylish end to the meal.  With two glasses of excellent dry french white and a coke cost £57.10.

Would I go again - Yes
