Matamei Nissim

Mediterranean

Matamei Nissim appears as though it is straight out of a storybook. Nissim and his mother open their Libyan restaurant each day with joy and high spirits. Nissim’s mother cooks this wonderful food with her son’s helping hand in their polished and welcoming joint. She constantly has pots steaming as she brews a selection of traditional Libyan courses. All the while, Nissim garnishes the dishes and serves the customers personally. Each day has a specialty, from Monday’s stuffed peppers to Tuesday’s homemade couscous. On Wednesdays, you may just catch some Libyan cigars. This restaurant appeals to the taste buds of old and young alike, frequented by children after school, among the regulars who are hooked.
