What People Are Saying About Phoenicia Deli

The Editor

Citysearch

In Short – Houstonians flock to this charming Mediterranean bakery and deli, highly regarded for its breads and pastries, authentic hummus, tabouli, dolmas (rice and pine nut-stuffed grape leaves), gyros, shawarmas and falafel--to name but a few of the delights prepared daily at this local institution. In addition to prosciutto and mortadella sandwiches and homemade Persian candies, the restaurant also sells hard-to-find specialty Middle Eastern items such as to-die-for marinated olives, olive oils, spices, vinegar, rice, beans, cheese, tea and coffee.

PUBIC HAIR FOUND IN FOOD!

by PhonoeciaDeli at Citysearch

My wife bought some food at the Phoenicia Deli on Westheimer Rd, Houston TX to go and what was in the box when we opened it? A big black pubic pubic hair (and I think know what a pubic hair looks like).

I think the owners do not value the rather large Asian community in Houston as customers, and this I've seen time and time again when eating at the Phoenicia Deli. So if you're Asian, and you don't like pubic hair in your food, don't come here!

Mediterranean food is always tasty, but does that overshadow finding pubic hairs in your food? Phonoecia Deli should probably be re-evaluated by the health board at this point.

DO NOT go to the Phoenicia Deli UNLESS you don't mind weeding out the pubic hair in your food because the person at the counter just doesn't like you or your race.

  • Pros: So-so Meditarranean Food Taste
  • Cons: Finding a pubic hair in it, Owners hate Asians
