After winning hearts in Wagga Wagga, Habibi brought its Lebanese charcoal chicken to Melbourne earlier this year. Birds are marinated for 24 hours in a heady mix of garlic, cumin, coriander and paprika before hitting the rotisserie.
Grab a combo with flatbread, pickles and garlic-herb Habibi sauce, or spice things up with the Blame the Flame wrap – chicken, chips, slaw, Lebanese-style pickles and a garlicky chilli sauce – that’s brushed with extra chilli and toasted to order.
Hot tip: Take home some Wagga-made sauces and seasonings. They’re part of Habibi’s mission to support regional communities with jobs, something echoed in the name – “my love” in Arabic.
