It's been a while since I last visited Cafe La Med in Berkeley and ordered take-out of my favorite - pomegranate chicken. Sadly, since they were sold, the quality is not what it was. In the past you would get a little piece of cheese, a little piece of banana and a little piece of pineapple along with the entre. These were all missing. You also got hummus with a little slice of carrot and some full pieces of pita. This order had little pieces of pita that might as well have been white sandwich bread. The hummus came in a little plastic container and had very little flavor. I ordered the potato salad, which was OK, as the side which was slapped into a separate cardboard box. The menu has obviously changed for the worse. The chicken and rice overpowered with sweetness with not much finesse. Perhaps you get what I used to expect if you eat at the restaurant. Perhaps the lack of the little niceties is for money savings. I d be happy to pay a few bucks more to get back my delicious chicken pomegranate of old.
