The restaurant is located on Rainbow Street, which is said to be a relatively modern and famous street in Amman with a young audience. I think it is similar to Tianzifang in Shanghai. We arrived at Rainbow Street in the evening. The first impression was indeed as described, and we felt the youthful atmosphere of modern society. While walking and looking for food, we saw this restaurant located on the corner, surrounded by red apricots and dense trees (at first I didn't know it was a place to eat). The restaurant's sign is next to the street lamp, also hidden in the trees. When we walked in, the environment at the gate was quite petty bourgeoisie. When we walked to the stairs inside and looked down, we were amazed by everyone. This is the most beautiful dress I have seen since I came to Jordan. I couldn't help but exclaim. [Color] It took a lot of time to study the menu. In addition, there were many people. From sunset to ordering until the sky was completely dark, we finally decided on the staple food. Compared with the countless cuisines in Greater China, Jordan's food is very simple. Due to the geographical climate, the food here is more similar to that in northern my country, with mostly pasta and few vegetables and fruits. The staple food is a bread like Xinjiang's naan. Tear the bread in the middle and divide it into two halves, add various vegetables inside, and take a few bites, and you can finish it in one meal.
We are foreigners who don't know how to eat, so we still eat the vegetables and the bread. The food is not bad, especially when I meet someone like me who likes to eat grass. I basically clear all the grass that comes up~ Various unknown grasses are very fresh, mostly mixed with tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., poured with goat cheese or local special sauces. The overall taste is actually good, and I personally can still accept it.
The meat is basically sausages, cut into pieces, slices, and strips, with potato cubes, some spicy, or roasted tomatoes. The meat will be more tender than expected, and the umami taste is stronger than the phenomenon.
The most popular one is the roast chicken bibimbap (let's call it that for the time being), and I ordered two plates and finished them all. The rice was fried just right, very chewy, and had a bit of Thai rice texture.
I didn't try the desserts, because a few plates of grass had completely knocked me out...
I made an appointment in advance, didn't have to wait in line for long, and I got my meal quickly. It was good.

We went for lunch yesterday after our boat docked at the pier and it was a short walk through the new promenade and restaurants by the pier. The restaurant itself is beautifully appointed and located on the seafront with many staff very friendly, welcoming and competent. We ordered the Jordanian main course and were very pleased!
