Lotsa Pasta

Image
 This is a newly started pasta delivery restaurant and offered to send me some of their delicious offerings to try.  For the appetisers, we had the mozzarella sticks which were pretty good. It had a good texture.  The other appetiser was the mac n cheese balls . These were okay; could have been a little more cheesy. For their salad, we tried the  Caesar fusilli salad . You regular Caesar salad with some fusilli pasta in it. It is a nice combination, and tasted quite good with the salad dressing it came with.  I saw they have chicken fajita pasta which was something interesting. This was made with farfalle pasta and was really delicious.  They have combos of appetiser and pasta / salad so you can mix and match. Pretty good food overall although the delivery was delayed a bit more than expected which was a let down. 

Go Chinese

 This is a delivery outlet with some interesting food options. They offered to send me some food for a review. The food was nicely packed and arrived on time. For the appetisers, we had the veg spring roll . A lot of places this is just average, but I really liked this one. The filling was nice and flavourful. They also have combos and I ordered the starter + bowl combo.  For my starter I chose the lemongrass shrimp dumpling in chilli lime soy sauce . The dumplings were delicious and the sauce really added some flavour to it.  For the bowl, it was the kung pao chicken . I wouldn't say it was the best, but it was certainly very good. We had it along with rice.  Last but not the least, we had the pad thai noodles . The quantity was really good. It could have had some more vegetables though.  Click here for interesting places around Dubai.

iWok - Asian delivery outlet

Image
This is an Asian restaurant that sent me some food for a review.  The food was nicely packed and arrived before time.  The Asian quinoa salad was quite good. It came with a sauce on the side which added some flavour. There was some chilli in the salad and I found it a bit spicy though.  The veg tom yum soup was comforting. It was hot and spicy with a tangy flavour to it. The Thai herbs and spices gave a good aroma to it.  For the appetiser, I had vegetable spring roll. It was good but pretty much standard; nothing out of the blue.  For my noodles, I chose udon noodles with burnt chilly sauce. I added some bean sprouts, pak choi, baby corn, snow peas, shitake mushrooms, and tofu to it. The overall flavour was really delicious and all the ingredients tasted great together.  It's a nice place if you're looking for some good Asian food delivered.

Wow - Maggi and Pav

Image
The name Wow Maggi and Pav itself is really catchy and when I saw their menu, I was really eager to try out their food. They delivered some at my house for a review.  It was delivered on time and everything was packed really well.  The first item was the pizza vada pav burger . This is a vada pav with the pizza sauce, and some vegetables in it. It looks a bit like a burger. It really had the taste of the pizza in a burger! I totally recommend it for all pizza fans.  View this post on Instagram A post shared by Famished Explorer [ UDIT ] (@uditss) on Sep 30, 2019 at 7:19am PDT I'm a fan of momos, and when I saw they have a maggi cheese momo , I had to try this out. It has a generous amount of cheese in it which is the best part, and I got a good flavour of the maggi as well. The covering of the momo itself was also right.  They've got maggi biryani as well which sounded really interesting. These are maggi noodles that are birya...

Mix n' Match - Delivery review

Image
This is a delivery only restaurant which has multiple outlets. They offered to send me some food for a review. As the name suggests, you can mix n match different dishes from different places. Here are the items that I ordered. All of them are vegetarian . I ordered a Hummus by tawook nation. It looked really nice but was a tad bit dry. The baked falafel wrap by right bite express tasted delicious. I liked the fact that the bread was really thin and I could get nice flavours. Although it had become a bit soggy. The greenhouse pizza by NKD was delicious. Before I even opened the box, I could get the lovely aroma from this one. ` The garlic bread by NKD was nice and cheesy. It had a good flavour to it. We totally loved the Lentil soup by ritebite express. It was a tad bit thicker than usual and had small pieces of carrots in it. I also asked for a salad - the Athena by barsalata 2. This looked really colourful and the portion size was nice too. It was f...
