View this post on Instagram
You may be most familiar with Doughlicious’s pita pies and Mediterranean baked goods, but on Fridays and Saturdays after 11 a.m., you can also experience the restaurant’s barbecue menu. Along with items like smoked brisket and skewers, you can get wraps in three flavours: shish tawook (grilled chicken, fries, coleslaw and garlic sauce), beef kafta (ground beef, tomatoes, pickles, parsley, onions and tahini) or batata (fries, coleslaw and garlic sauce). And of course, they all come wrapped in one of Doughlicious’ famous pitas. Try to dine in so you can experience Doughlicious’s newly expanded space.
