Little Jerusalem was great. Shawarma at its best. Lamb and chicken Shawarma (called original mix) for me and an Abraham special for my wife. An Abraham special was sautéed peppers, chicken and lamb with Gouda cheese on a pita with a Modelo beer for $12. Mine was just chicken and lamb with tomatoes and lettuce plus the “famous garlic sauce” on a pita plus 2 Peroni beers from Italy - $14 dollars. A cheap but delicious night. Never had Shawarma until Little Jerusalem a number of years ago. Similar prices to Two years ago. Highly recommend for a cheap date with spouse.
In morning had croissants and pain au chocolat from Royal Deli at RP. They now get their baguette and croissants from La Sucrerie. Our pain au chocolat had one chocolate stick as opposed to 2, but good nonetheless. Rationing of chocolate.
Stayed at RP for day. We used to go to all different beaches but traffic is a pain- so path of least resistance.
It was relaxing and enjoyable.
Off to VesnaTaverna, to check out the food under the new ownership. The online menu says under revision, let us surprise you. We hope for the best.

The shawarmas at Little Jerusalem are as tasty as any cheesesteak which I consider the best of all sandwiches
It is our first stop on the island after a full day of traveling but we now share one shawarma
maybe on of the best values on the island
Word has Abraham was retiring but he was still working last August
It's hard to leave as I know he is a people person
Vesna Taverna's online menu has been under revision way before change of ownership
Wonder if they are offering a tomahawk chop which used to be one of their specials I believe and not off the menu
Haven't been to Vesna for many years but maybe time to add it to our list
Awaiting a good review

Love lamb me being Lebanese. Grew up on it. Eat more lamb than beef or pork. Is the lamb sliced, shredded, chunks or ground in the shawarma?

Abraham was not there so I guess he retired. Same quality however!
