Afters - dessert parlour
This is a dessert place in Al Seef where I was invited to try out their offerings.
Among the savory options, they have sandwiches.
We had a turkey and cheese toastie. Grilling it makes the cheese melt and it gives a nice flavour.
The other one was the waffle sandwich. This one also had cheese inside it, but the waffle was thick and I could taste mostly just that. It also tasted a bit dry. They gave some ketchup along with it, which greatly improved the flavour, but I personally feel that if I need to add sauces to make the flavour better, then the dish by itself isn't all that great.
We saw a tempting dessert called the brownie point in the menu. It is served in a tall glass and contains fudge brownie, chocolate and vanilla ice-cream, hod fudge sauce, fresh banana, whipped cream, chocolate honey comb pieces, Florentine wafers and cigar wafer. That's a lot and you can imagine how loaded it gets. This tasted pretty good, but again, not something irresistible for a restaurant that is primarily a dessert place.
Next, we had the teddy bear's picnic which has vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate ice cream, marshmallows, hot fudge sauce, Florentine wafers and cigar wafers. It is so called because it comes in a bowl that has a teddy bear on it. It looked really cute. This one tasted good too. The marshmallows were a bit harder than what I've usually had. It was pretty good overall.
On this particular day, the air-conditioning wasn't working too well, and it felt warm inside. Given the warm weather, we would have certainly liked the atmosphere to be a bit cooler there.
