Tavlin is a Middle Eastern and Arabic restaurant ideally located along Glen Huntly Road, on the cusp of Caulfield South, Elsternwick and Caulfield proper. Popular among locals looking for a colourful and healthy lunch, Tavlin’s laffa wraps and lunch plates (three salads or dips and a shashlik skewer), traditional desserts like malabi and a kids’ menu that gets the little ones into falafel at an early age, are always popular. Dinner, while just as popular, is a different story at this Melbourne restaurant. Come the evening Tavlin opens out into a full-force Middle Eastern eatery, salads and dips, delicious charcoal grilled meats and eggplant, lavish plates of hummus in a variety of styles, big plates of falafel, shawarma, kofta,beef and lamb, and incredible homemade desserts like Turkish delight ice cream rounding off an impressive offering.
