John Daniel's "terabite" Burger



I refrain writing blogs of QSR (fast food restaurants) but this one deserves one. 
I saw about their burgers on Facebook and they looked extremely tempting. They've got burgers with patties stacked like the Burj Khalifa. Also, their patties aren't frozen; they make 'em fresh. You can see it being made in the kitchen. 

 The burgers are of different sizes and they're called "kilobite", "megabite", "gigabite" and the "terabite" based on the number of patties in it. All of these are with a beef patty.
I wanted to order a "terabite" as it looked huge, but I wasn't sure if I could finish it. So my friend and I decided to share the "terabite" instead of ordering two small burgers. We made it a combo (fries and blue lemonade) by adding 6 bucks more. 
The lady at the counter was very courteous as opposed to most reviews here. Though they couldn't give a receipt that day as the machine wasn't working. 

After placing our order, we waited a good 10 minutes (which is a lot for a burger place) while watching them make the patties in the kitchen. The patties looked huge. After the long wait, we were finally served our food. The burger was huge indeed. The patties were really juicy and meaty. On the side they give you ketchup, mayonnaise, and a sauce which they make in-house which you can add to the burger. Their in-house sauce is a spicy one and really enhances the flavor of the burger. The slice of bacon on top too was delicious. One bite, and I was craving for more. 

If you're a sophisticated eater, there's cutlery available. The cutlery was made of  metal and I was impressed as this is just a small quick service outlet. If you're a messy eater, they have gloves available. Put them on and dig in!
If you're really famished, then you might be able to finish the whole burger, otherwise it is quite a task for one person. 

 The blue lemonade comes in a mason jar and is great. It feels really refreshing and the quantity is good too. The fries too aren't bad. At par with the ones you get in a fast food outlet.
As far as the price is concerned, if you compare it with McDonald's, it is expensive, but compared to most good burger places around the city, the price is reasonable, especially considering the quantity of meat in it, and that it is made fresh.

Baku food : What did I eat in Azerbaijan?

Image
Azerbaijani food has a lot of Middle Eastern influence, and a lot of dishes are variations of those you get in the Middle East. There were a few good local restaurants I visited, and a few others too. I'm going to talk about all of these in this post.  The name of the dishes may be a bit different in Azeri (language), and some might just be a translation / description of the dish. You can click on the name of the restaurant to get the exact location.   Burc Qala [well known for Azeri cuisine]:- This is located in the heart of the city - Icheri Shehr (which means Old City). While walking through the old forts in this area, we came across this restaurant. The interiors feel really traditional. Also, a lot of shades of red are used. Here, I had the qutab , which is a very famous local dish; more of a snack. It is made from thinly rolled dough, and has filling inside. It usually has two variants - minced meat, and mixed greens. I had both and they were delicious. Both felt r

Indo-Arab menu at Ashiana

Image
Ashiana is an Indian restaurant located in Sheraton beside Dubai Creek. Recently it has got a new head chef - Joseph Yohanna - and has started its Indo-Arab menu; and we were among the first ones invited to try it out.  This was my first time visiting this outlet, and as soon as I entered, the ambiance felt classy. They've got live Indian music too (bollywood, and ghazals), so if you're a fan, you'll love it, otherwise it might be a bit too loud.  We started off with some pani-puri fruit juice shots . In this, instead of the regular pani, there was a mango-based fruit juice. The taste wasn't bad by itself, but if you're in the mood for pani-puri, then this doesn't quite hit the spot.  After this, all the items were Indian, with an Arabic twist to it.  We had a soup which was called dejaj (chicken) shorba . In a bowl were small pieces of chicken, and a bread-stick tempered with cumin, over which we poured the broth that was served separately. It

Oakberry Acai Bowls

Image
This is a Brazilian brand which has 200 outlets worldwide and has recently started in Dubai with 8 outlets. They invited me to try out their outlet in Citywalk. Most of their outlets here are kiosks but this is a comparatively bigger one. The ambience is nice and they've used a green and purple colour scheme which gives a bit of a earthy vibe.  You can customize your acai bowl or smoothie with the various ingredients that they have.  We took one with Acai, chia seeds, almonds, hazelnut, and strawberry. It was nice and healthy, although colder than usual. If you have it quickly, you might get a brain-freeze.  In the other one we had acai with condensed milk, strawberry, almonds and chia seeds. I liked the flavour of the condensed milk in this one.  It's a good place especially if you like to have something healthy.  Click here to salivate
