Kulfilicious - Al Karama

This is perhaps the name that first come to my mind when I think of kulfi. I've visited other outlets of theirs and really liked the offerings. I was invited to try out this outlet. 

 Just liked the other outlets, this one too is designed in a desi style with a lot of desi / Bollywood things dotting the place. 

 We started with one of their kul coffees. These are like coffees that have kulfi in it and are available in various flavours. We tried the toffee one and it was really good. It was a tad bit thicker than I would have liked but the taste was nice. 

 For our kulfi, we first tried the mango kulfi. It was served with real mangoes on the side, which really adds on to the kulfi experience and accentuates the flavours further. We really liked the flavours of this one. 

 I had had the black pepper kulfi in another outlet, and asked for it here too, but sadly it wasn't available. 

 So we had the blueberry kulfi. This too was pretty good, but the flavour was a bit subtle; not as prominent as the mango kulfi which we had. Also, this one didn't have real blueberries accompanying it. 

 We then tried one of their shakes called the Mystical garden. It has a vanilla kulfi base, and is made along with semi frozen milk, real mango pieces, and prunes. I think I really liked this combination. It wasn't too sweet, and did not have too many things in it which made me like it. The consistency was good too. 

 Faloodas are one of their specialities, and we tried two of these. 
One of them was the Sultani falooda which has 5 fruits viz. peach, strawberry, banana, plum, mango. Apart from this, it has malai kulfi, rabsi, rose syrup, jelly nuts, and is topped with whipped cream. If you like more of natural fruits, this is something that will definitely appeal to you. 

 I personally liked the Royal Falooda more. This one doesn't have fruits in it, but you can choose three kulfi flavours. We had the lychee, panarasi paan, and rose mint. This one too has rabdi, rose syrup, jelly, and nuts. I recommend this for sharing unless you have a huge sweet tooth.

 We were being served by Jennifer who was courteous, and explained us about the dishes well.

 I recommend going here for the wide variety of kulfis and kulfi preparations that they serve.

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
