My epic Miami Street Food series continues with a taste of Middle Eastern street food in my hometown of Miami, Florida! Come join me and my father as we dine on some tasty Middle Eastern favorites, including falafel, kibbeh, hummus, lamb kafta, gyros, and much more!

We headed over to the Original Daily Bread Marketplace in Coconut Grove. It was established in 1975 and I’ve been going there for decades! We were going to try a mix of Lebanese, Greek, and Turkish food and I could not wait. They have a market, a kitchen, and a restaurant!

Inside, Josy took us on a tour of the market before we headed to the kitchen where we saw a woman rolling out grape leaves stuffed with rice and meat! We also saw some cream-filled baklava topped with sugar syrup and crushed pistachios.

I watched them fry up some falafels, which are chickpea fritters with parlsey and onion. We got some tabbouleh, hummus, pilaf, lamb kafta, rice with vermicelli noodles, baba ghanoush, and more!

Everything looked incredible! I started with the lamb kafta and baba ghaloush, which was heavenly! Baba ghanoush is my favorite! Everything we had was so healthy and fresh, and it’s made fresh in-house.

Next, I tried the tabbouleh, which was so fresh and crunchy. I loved the burst of tomatoes. They’re my go-tos when I visit Daily Bread Marketplace! The fries with roasted thyme had a nice spice to them. Then, I dug into the beef shawarma with onions. I loved the cut of the beef and the caramelized flavor of the onions. I tried it with some hummus, which was super delicious and perfect! It’s original hummus made with just chickpeas and olive oil.

Then, I went for the Greek salad, which was a little different because of the pickled onions. The feta cheese in it was so buttery!

Next, I tried the stuffed grape leaves (dolmathes) with vegetables. It fell apart on me but it was so good! Then I tried the meat one with hummus, which I think pairs well with everything. It was too good! It was richer than the veg one. The cabbage leaf stuffed with rice and vegetables took me back to Hungary. Next was the falafel, which I tried with the tahini. It was fresh and dense and crunchy! I also liked it with the hot sauce and the spicy aioli. The aioli was creamier and super spicy! I needed some yogurt to calm down the heat!

Then, I tried the kibbeh with tzatziki. I loved how crunchy and beefy it was. It was so delicious! Next was the spanakopita, or Greek spinach pie. It’s best eaten plain. I loved the layers of dough and the delicious spinach. Spanakopita with honey is an amazing breakfast!

Then, I jumped on the gyro, which contained beef, lamb, tomatoes, and lettuce. It’s a great meal by itself. It’s really refreshing and is a nice summer food. Then, for dessert, we had two types of baklava, a layered Greek pastry. The traditional Greek version contains walnuts, and we also got another with cream and pistachios. We had some Turkish coffee as well.

The layers in the baklava were amazing and so crunchy. The layers on the outside are super crispy while the ones on the inside are nice and soft. The combination with the creamy filling was amazing! Then, I tried the original Greek version, which was heaven in my mouth. I loved the amount of mashed-up walnuts. It was super decadent!

Then, we went back to the market to buy some stuff for the weekend! We got some baklava, kalamata olive hummus, baba ghanoush, Turkish delights, and cashew lady fingers. What a way to end our day!
