FAMISHED EXPLORER

This outlet of Perfetto Pizzeria was just opened and I was invited to try out the food.  They have seating outdoors mainly, and a very small seating area inside.  I really liked the bbq chicken pizza. It had a nice flavour to it.  If you're looking for a bit of a desi flavour then the chicken tikka pizza is also a good choice.  View this post on Instagram A post shared by Udit 📷 [Famished Explorer] (@uditss) on Sep 14, 2020 at 8:10am PDT We also relished the all time classic - margarita.  For veggie lovers, they have a couple of pizzas too. The giardiniera pizza is the one I had. It has bell peppers, mushroom, black olive, sweet corn, mozzarella, and homemade tomato sauce.  We tried some nice beverages too. My favourite one was the power wagon. It is dark green in colour and has a unique flavour to it.  The energy booster is pretty good too.  If you like something that's classic Italian, do ...

The name of this place definitely needs no introduction. This recently started restaurant based on the name of a superstar serves food from all of South India. They have a lot of street food items too, and it also serves alcohol.  We started with the nannari sarbath which is a famous beverage in south India and has a peculiar flavour.  For the appetisers, we first had some all time favourites like medu vada , masala vada (paruppu vadai). The vadas were nice and crispy and were served with flavourful chutneys. Then we had some fusions ones like Gobi 65 and Chicken 65 which were also quite good.  One of my favourite was the Eggnikanth . This is an egg omelet with stuffing inside. You have a choice of mushrooms or prawns. The stuffing is spicy and I totally loved it. I definitely recommend trying this out.  Another dish which was excellent was the mutton kola urandai which is like a mutton kofta; made from soft and delicious minced mutton....

This is a fun and chilled out place with some good Mexican food.  We started with some queso fundido . This is a dish made basically of melted cheese, and has your choice of meat in it. We asked the chicken one. If you're a cheese lover, this is cheese heaven. It does taste quite good, although after a bite or two I thought it was a cheese overload, and a tad bit dry.  They have guacamole as a starter and it is due to the quantity as well as the fact that they prepare it in front of you. It was made in a big wooden bowl and was heavenly. We relished it with tortilla chips.  I was in a mood for some soup, and ordered the crema de frijoles (bean soup). It was thick and really flavourful. I loved the creamy texture that it had to it.  We then ordered the taquitos potato. These are basically a rolled up tortilla with a filling of your choice. The potato filling tasted quite average and it wasn't something we enjoyed.  They've got a good ...

We saw this place and wanted to go try it out for a light bite.  Public parking is easily available and wasn't difficult even on a weekend.  The place has a good feel to it.  They have a good variety of Turkish dishes. They have different kinds of shawerma too, and we ordered the regular chicken shawerma sandwich . It was a little bigger than most places and had a really good taste to it.  The other item that caught my attention was the Tobik . This is somewhat like a burger. We ordered the chicken one. I took a bite and it felt heavenly. It was hot and crispy and the stuffing tasted good too. It looks like a burger but has the texture of a shawerma. Definitely worth a try.  Last, but not the least, we ended our meal with a hot cup of Turkish tea.  The service was quick and we had a good experience overall.  Click here for delicious food and lovely places around Dubai.    

A friend of mine suggested this place as there was a particular dish that he wanted to have here. It was a weekend and it was quite crowded. We went about 8:30pm and got a table on the spot, although any later and we'd have to wait to be seated. We started with the chicken manchow soup . It was spicy and delicious; served with crispy fried noodles on the side. Along with it, we asked for a portion of masala papad . This was below average and I didn't enjoy it much. For our appetisers, we had the chicken gilafi sheekh which was really very good. It was soft and had a nice peppery flavour. We then ordered a mutton khichadi . Very few places serve this and that's what we came here for. The mutton was soft and the khichadi was nice. It had a very homely flavour to it. I also had a dahi puri which was made really well, with a good amount of filling inside it. They have something called as cocktail shots which is an assortment of various beverages. Y...

It was a weekend and we were looking for a quick bite so we ended up going here.  It's not a very big place but they have a good variety of options on the menu. We started with the aloo cheese onion paratha . The cheese in the paratha was melted and we couldn't see the cheese in it. We asked for more, and they were happy to give us some extra cheese. The taste of the paratha was quite good.  I ordered a dahi kachori chaat , and it was really flavourful with ample amount of dahi in it. The ragda pattice too was good enough. I would have liked the pattice itself to have more flavour but nothing to complain about.  Last, but not the least, we had a nice cuppa chai .  The service is fast, and the staff is friendly.  Our server got us the bill without asking for it, which I didn't quite like.  Click here for delicious food and lovely places around Dubai.    

This is a healthy restaurant and I've recently started having healthy food so I've taken a liking towards it. A friend of mine invited me here and I was excited to check out the restaurant.  The ambience is nice and has earthy green and brown colours although it's not a very big place.  While we waited for our food, we munched on some makhana (lotus seeds / fox nuts) which is a nice touch.  We had a refreshing drink - the Summer Cooler . This one is watermelon based with a twist of mint. Perfect for this hot weather.  A classic starter is the Tandoori chicken . This one was served with mint chutney and was just average though. It could have had more flavour to it.  Dabeli is one of my favourite Indian street snacks, and they have the Black Dabeli here. They basically use black pav with the dabeli masala inside. The taste itself was really good, although a little different from what I imagine for a dabeli. Also, the pav wasn't as hot as expe...
