What We Tried (and Absolutely Loved)
1. Avo Egg Puff
A flaky, golden pastry filled with creamy avocado and soft egg, this one’s light yet satisfying—perfect for a breezy brunch or a quick pick-me-up.
2. Shakshuka with Labneh
Parka’s version of this classic is comfort in a skillet. Rich, spiced tomato sauce cradles poached eggs, while a generous dollop of tangy labneh on top brings it all together beautifully.
3. PB Keema (Must-Try!)*
If there’s one dish you can’t leave without trying, it’s the PB Keema. Think spiced minced meat layered with the velvety richness of butter chicken gravy. Unexpected? Yes. Unforgettable? Absolutely.
4. The Croissant Line-Up
From savory to sweet, Parka’s croissants are baked fresh in-house and packed with flavor:
- Akkawi Croissant – Slightly salty, buttery, and satisfying
- Almond Croissant – Crispy on the outside, soft and nutty on the inside
- Cinnamon Croissant – A warm, spiced delight
- Pistachio Croissant – Buttery, nutty perfection with creamy pistachio filling
5. Mille-Feuille (The Dessert Highlight)
A layered masterpiece of crisp pastry and silky cream, the Mille-Feuille is a must for those who appreciate elegant, not-too-sweet desserts. The ideal finish to any Parka meal.
