"Hafla Hafla is easily in my top 3 restaurants in Liverpool! The small plates were generously portioned and amazing. My favourites were the broccoli with babaganoush and the corn ribs. The Persian roast chicken Kebab was to die for and left me very stuffed. A very underrated spot; I had a fantastic time!!!"
