[Burlingame] Bayroot Lebanese Restaurant

I haven’t been yet but I have noticed this newly opened restaurant that serves more than just the hummus, falafel, etc seen in a typical Mediterranean restaurant (nothing wrong with these, but just there are more than just these). I thought folks here may be interested. Seriously, check out the entree, veggie, hot mezza menus. Some fairly interesting items. Has anyone been?

I copied and pasted the menu below.

Bayroot? Word play on Beirut?

I would eventually go, but since I don’t really go to Burlingame much, it’d be a long while before I go.

A pic from their web site. I see the kenafeh. Not sure what that red thing at the top is.
