The other day I had a dish that I was longing for a LOOOOONG time! Shakshuka!!!
There’s a café-restaurant that I love going to on my free weekday mornings called “Naiim
”, in Paddington, Brisbane (Australia) that serves delicious middle eastern food with a unique modern twist, giving each bite an amazing mixture of flavours!
Since I grew up on middle eastern food, I appreciate every place that can bring me a little taste of home back 😊
Naiim has a great atmosphere, very cosy - in a Queenslander style home, with plenty of light inside. The staff is very friendly and service is great. Can be quite busy on weekends but definitely worth trying it out!
I could eat almost anything on the menu- from the falafel with pita, the eggplant, hummus, shawarma ….. Yummmyyyy!:)
From the menu :
I ordered the shakshuka – my favorite! Eggs poached in a sauce of tomatoes, capsicum, onions and spices, served in a cast iron pan with olives and merguez (optional) . A bit spicy and soooo delicious! Comes with toasted bread to help “swipe” the plate clean 😊

After:
We also had the smokey eggplant dish, which was so delicious! with toasted bread and fresh leaves on the side. since I tried it out I've been making Tehina at home mixed with yogurt as well! such a great and refreshing twist
and to top it all - a nice cup of coffee - my favourite drink to start the day with!
If you're around- definitely worth a taste!
This place inspired me to try out at home a few more middle eastern dishes with some twists. Eventually I will post them here as well:)
Hope you have a lovely delicious week!
