FAMISHED EXPLORER

 This is a Jordanian restaurant where I was invited to try the food.  It has a nice décor and seating for about 25-30 people. They have some interesting dishes on their menu and we were spoilt for choice.  We started with the chicken Mexican saj . It had a delicious filling of chicken with lovely Mexican flavours.  Then we tried their stuffed falafels . They have various kinds. My favourite was the one stuffed with cheese. The cheese just melted as I took a bite. They also have the one stuffed with nuts which was nice.  Musakhan is another Jordanian item that I like. I've usually had it in the form of rolls but here they had one as a meal. It is served on a big plate with chicken on top. This was really flavourful. It has a bit of a crispy texture to it and was maroon in colour Looked appealing too. It did have quite a bit of oil / fat on it though.  One of my favourite dishes here was the shami fatteh . It has hummus mixed with beans, bread and their special dressing, topped with

 This is a small but nice mandi restaurant in Silicon Oasis. They have a nice majlis style seating. I was invited here to try out the food. We started with some salads like tabbouleh and fattoush which were really fresh.  The mohamarra was good enough too. Then we had the mixed grill . I especially liked the lamb kebabs in this. They were very flavourful. We then tried their chicken mandi and chicken madhbi . I liked the madhbi more. The grilled chicken had a nice smoky flavour to it.  chicken mandi chicken madhbi There was the lamb madfoon too. The lamb was really soft and the meat just fell off the bone. It tasted really good. This is a nice place, and the food was nice overall. 

 I've been to Project Chaiwala first time a long time ago and they recently invited me to check out their newly opened kiosk in Silicon Oasis. It is just a small kiosk and doesn't offer any seating so is suited best for a takeaway or a delivery.  It was summer and we started with the ice-tea . We had the regular one as well as the hibiscus one. These were not bad. For the snacks we tried their desi smashmosa which is their take on a samosa chaat. It tasted really good. The next item was the chilli cheese toastie . It also had some jalapenos in it and tasted great. We then tried the butter chicken paratha . The butter chicken tasted great, and overall this was flavourful. For the dessert, we tried their Nutella toastie . The good thing is that it isn't an overload of sweetness, but tastes nice especially if you're a fan of Nutella. We couldn't leave without trying out their teas. We had the masala chai , and the signature chai . Both of these were really good. I lo
