Docker Cafe
Docker cafe is located near the cruise terminal which is about 2 miles from Marina cubes where most of the restaurants in Port Rashid are located. A friend of mine invited me to try out the restaurant.
At the time of writing this post, Docker Cafe is the only restaurant in the cruise terminal area. Fun fact: It is one of QE2's life boats that they've used and build a bit on it to make this cafe.
We started with some karak chai as we had a look at the menu and decided what to order. The chai was really nice, and had the right amount of spices in it.
To start with, we had the dynamite prawns. These are served in a bit different way than usual. These are really saucy, and despite the small bun and the fries that they're served with this was a lot of sauce even then. No doubt that the dynamite sauce was deliciously spicy, and the prawns were crispy too.
The recommended us the chicken kadai roll which was their personal favourite. They said it is spicy and since we love spicy, we tried this out. I did not find it spicy at all, and the taste was average.
The other roll was the chicken zinger. I really liked the flavour that this one had to it. It was mild, and the chicken was crunchy. I liked the other stuffing in it too.
For our final savoury dish, we had the all time favourite butter chicken. This was creamy and I could get the prominent taste of the tomato base. It was a tab bit sweeter than expected; though overall it tasted really good. It was served along with a paratha.
For the sweet endings, we had an Oreo milkshake. I totally loved this. It had the right amount of sweetness, and a good consistency to it.
They have some sweet parathas too. We tried the lotus paratha, and for lotus fans it is definitely worth a try.
Then we had the Nutella banana paratha. This felt a bit dry, and personally it wasn't something that suited my taste-buds.
Overall the food tasted really good and is reasonably priced. I liked the location more than anything else, since it is a bit secluded from the other restaurants, and you see just a handful of cruise-goers going in and out of the cruise ships if they're docked.
