ABOUT SHABABI:
.. Merging culture, family, and the story of diaspora.
...Threading the comfort and complexities of the flavors of home, as well as the restaurant kitchens my parents owned when I was a child, offered me a lifetime of appreciation for a land I knew through heritage. The flavors and feelings represented here pay homage to my experience growing up as a first generation American. I look forward to welcoming you on my journey of remembrance and reclamation.
...Starting with our concepts staple - chicken inspired by musakhan, the national dish of Palestine, and the world famous rotisserie chickens that are served in the West Bank. Our Shababi chicken is brined for 24 hours before being coated with our blended mix of allspice, sumac, cumin, fenugreek, and cardamom. Each chicken is slow cooked to perfection and served with our Shabibi taboon.
Beckon the call "Yalla Shabai" to your people and have them join you for this Palestinian inspired feast!
YALLA SHABABI!
Shababi is Arabic for “my people”. Whether it’s an auntie using it to call all of the kids for musakhan dinner, or baba gathering his group of friends to play backgammon- Shababi evokes the sense of community and flavors that stuck out in youthful memories.
Sincerely, Marcelle
THE WINES:
Weingut Brand - Weissburgunder '2021 (Pfalz, DEU)
The Perfect Summer White Wine! Dry, crisp. light and aromatic. Easy to drink but far from a simple wine, this one smells of wildflowers, Granny Smith apples, and mixed citrus. The palate is dry, high-toned, and energetic. In addition to the green apple and citrus notes, there's also a well integrated, rocky minerality nuance that flows through the wine. ABV 12.5%
$17.99 ($24.99 - 1L Regular Price)
NON ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES:
Kally - Berry Fennel, Sipper 'Spring '23 Release (Portola Valley, CA)
Earthy, bold, and rich. Notes of cherry and chocolate combine for a balanced, seductive wine alternative. Toasted fennel seeds provide a hint of chocolate, while cherry and strawberry seductively provide balance and roundness. ABV 0.0%

Lautus - Savvy Red Wine 'NV (ZAF)
Grapes for our red blend, Lautus Savvy Red, is sourced from our winemaker's family farm in Vredendal - a town in the northern Olifants River Valley in the Western Cape province of South Africa. Great care was taken whilst removing the alcohol from this rich supple red blend. We make this blend by using grapes in the order that Reg planted the hectares on their farm - Shiraz/Pinotage/Tempranillo/Cabernet Sauvignon.This blend showcases pure red and black berry fruit flavours, with a touch of oak. The elegant palate is underpinned by fine tannin and juicy yet subtle fruit. To be enjoyed in its purest and natural form, without the restrictions of alcohol. ABV 0.5%
