Bringing a breath of fresh air to Tampa’s downtown region is the recently opened Tangerine House of Kabobs restaurant. This wonderful eatery offers the vibrant and healthy tastes of the Mediterranean in chic and tasteful settings just outside downtown on Kennedy Blvd.

We here at CrowdSavings are particular fans of Mediterranean cuisine – not only is it absolutely delicious, but it’s widely acknowledged as being tremendously healthy as well. Relying heavily on fresh vegetables, white meats, legumes and olive oil, Mediterranean cuisine is often referred to as a ‘longevity diet’ excellent at combating diabetes, obesity and reducing the risk of ageing-related ailments. Great tasting food that keeps you healthy? Yes please!

Preparing everything in-house from the freshest ingredients, Tangerine House of Kabobs’ menu offers a wide variety of tantalizing dishes, including succulent lamb shank; perfectly seasoned and slow-cooked with flame broiled vegetables, and sliced heart of tenderloin; marinated, skewered and charbroiled. However it was the attention to detail that caught our eye – you wouldn’t think there’s much you can do to make hummus stand out (it is essentially garbanzo beans and garlic) but the hummus at Tangerine House of Kabobs had a delicious tang of lemon juice that made it absolutely irresistible. And for a true Mediterranean experience, try one of the hookahs in the garden patio area.

Irresistible food, beautiful settings and just a few hundred yards from downtown, Tangerine House of Kabobs is definitely one of the best lunch destinations for anyone working in the city center, and is perfect for a memorable evening meal.
