Scran’s single review of Jaffre celebrates the lamb neck with honey as a standout, describing a warm, deeply comforting dish that defines the restaurant’s inviting, rustic vibe.
“The lamb neck with honey is absolutely mental. The boss man flies to Jordan twice a year just to buy the spice mix for this dish. You take some bread, put a little honey on it, then the lamb on top. It's an experience — the flavours are deep and unique.”
