They have my favorite cup of coffee - full flavored, not burnt. Also fresh home made stone fruit tarts, bread puddings and scones, also sit down meals. Prepare to wait on the week ends.

Everything we've ordered at Wahib's has been delicious. Lamb and rice is a favorite. If you are lucky enough to be in town during Ramadan, the buffet is bountiful. Leave room for dessert.
