After eating at Zimzala I have decided this is more than just amazing food it's an experience.

My wife and I are foodies and big wine lovers. Not only did they meet our needs but set a new level of dining in Orange County.

What we ate...
First of all--amazing bread upfront. The Chef offered us up a 'Amuse' a taste to what is going to come. I knew we were in for a treat after that.

Appetizer:
-Zimzala Mezze (Platter of everything Mediterranean, killer hummus)
-Stove Oven Flatbread (Flatbread pizza with mushrooms, tomato, 3-cheeses)

Entree:
-Moroccan Chicken Tagine (Olives, chicken mixed in couscous) ME
-Pan-Roasted Wild Salmon (Peas, mushrooms, potatoes, bacon) Wife

*BTW- They do not advertise the Sommelier service but they have an advanced Sommelier named Christopher who was unbelievable and paired each plate with amazing wines; Palmina (one of our favs) and Honig wines.

This is not a Coach's or stereotypical Mediterranean restaurant. It has tastes of North Africa, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Spain, etc.

You know you're eating at a great restaurant when you're fighting with your wife over leftovers.

(Oh) and don't forget to try the Ganache it's to die for. (via Zimzala Restaurant)
