Hummus With Beef Shawarma at Petra Mediterranean Restaurant Tampa
Section: Special Entrees
About the Dish
Hummus With Beef Shawarma is a classic Middle Eastern plate featuring creamy hummus (حمص) topped with tender beef shawarma, chopped onions, and fresh parsley. Hummus is a smooth blend of chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and olive oil that’s been a staple across the Levant for centuries. Shawarma (شاورما) means “turning” in Arabic, referring to meat roasted on a vertical spit and sliced thin.
At Petra in Tampa, our beef shawarma is marinated with warm spices and slow-roasted for an authentic Jordanian taste. We finish it with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of parsley for a fresh contrast. Served near USF and Busch Gardens, it’s perfect for lunch before heading to the Busch Gardens area or dinner in Temple Terrace.
