Featuring a variety of Mediterranean dishes, Pita Jungle is mixing things up this summer with its recently launched “Seasonal Kitchen Crafts Menu.”
The new bites include the Super Greens Nordic Salad and a Shaved Korean Beef Lavash Wrap — just a couple of the items from the menu the restaurant is calling “health and taste booster-themed.”
Plus, with a new and limited menu comes a potential mid-week getaway for wine lovers.
Pita Jungle has a pretty sweet deal on Wednesdays with half-priced bottles of wine, including the Jungle Vino private label that the restaurant released earlier in the year. For example, the 2019 Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon are $13 a bottle.
