MediTrainean, Crows Nest

July 5, 2016

by Corinne Mossati

Imagine a sushi train but with Mediterranean mezze. That’s is the concept at MediTrainean, a new venue that has opened in Crows Nest.

You’ve heard of Mascot’s Mezza Train serving Lebanese food, MediTrainean is all about Mediterranean style dishes served on a conveyor belt. Start with dips ($4.90) such as yoghurt with garlic and mint or the garlic dip blended with lemon juice and oil. Salads ($6.90) include Casarece, Pearl Couscous and hot smoked salmon. From the Small Plates ($6.90), there’s a vegetarian version of Vine Leaves, Stuffed Mussels with rice and caramelised onions and the usual arancini, meatballs in napolitana sauce and Calamari with garlic and lime aioli. Should you feel like something from the grill, scallops come in half shell with dukkah gratin ($12.90) and minced Lamb skewers ($9.90) are accompanied by a side of lemon and tzatziki.

Seating is available along the train as well as regular seating and the venue offers a take away option.

MediTrainean is open for dinner Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday from 6pm, and for lunch and dinner Thursday & Friday from 12pm to 10pm.
