4/5 Somaiya A. 2 years ago on Google
We
went
there
a
week
ago.
As
it
was
a
Friday
night,
upon
reaching
at
8:30pm,
we
were
told
most
of
the
items
were
sold
out.
Good
for
them,
not
so
good
for
us
as
we
had
a
very
limited
menu
to
sample.
We
thus
opted
for
Spicy
Chicken
Biryani,
Beef
Pulao,
Beef
Nihari,
Beef
Haleem
and
Daal
Mash.
The
food
was
served
promptly.
My
fav
were
the
Haleem
and
Daal
Mash.
Haleem
was
only
garnished
with
fried
onions.
Then
again,
I'm
used
to
the
entire
range
of
garnishes
like
fresh
coriander,
fresh
mint,green
chili,
sliced
ginger,
lemon
wedge
and
fried
onion.
We
got
lemon
upon
asking.
The
Haleem
was
just
too
good.
Daal
Mash
was
served
first
and
we
savored
it
with
the
piping
hot
naan.
There
is
just
no
comparison
of
good
Daal
Mash
with
naan
and
you
will
not
be
disappointed
with
the
one
served
here.
The
most
underwhelming
was
Beef
Nihari,
and
we
were
served
a
big
piece
of
inedible
chunk
of
fat,
alongside
a
piece
of
beef,
topped
with
ginger
and
chili.
The
gravy
was
nice
though
and
made
up
for
the
lack
of
meat,
but
then
again,
the
fun
is
in
the
breakupon
touched
tended
beef.
Now
for
the
main
reason
for
our
visit,
the
Spicy
Chicken
Biryani.
It
did
not
disappoint.
The
serving
was
big,
however,
we
were
served
rice
and
two
pieces
of
chicken
were
hidden
under
a
mountain
of
rice.
There
was
no
Aalu
anywhere.
Perhaps
it
was
about
to
finish
too,
as
it
was
very
oily.
Nonetheless,
being
a
Karachiitte,
we
ate
it
with
gusto
and
sips
of
water
and
spoons
full
of
raita,
because
it
was
spicy.
We
were
accompanied
by
a
4
yr
old
and
upon
asking
we
were
told,
the
Beef
Pulao
is
Kabuli
Pulao.
In
Peshawar,
Kabuli
Pulao
is
not
spicy,
so
we
ordered
it
thinking
it
will
be
mild,
but
nope,
there
were
green
chili
in
it
and
red
chili
too,
hence
our
son
didn't
have
anything
except
raita
and
naan
and
he
did
enjoy
it.
Dessert
was
only
kheer
and
it
was
one
of
the
items
that
had
finished
too.
So
we
asked
for
the
remaining
food
to
be
packed
as
we
had
barely
eaten
the
Nihari
and
Pualo.
We
asked
for
extra
naans
to
be
packed
alongside
too,
but
someone
forgot
to
pack
those.
Understandably,
it
is
just
their
2nd
month
of
operation,
and
they
are
settling
in,
the
food
is
really
good,
the
service
is
prompt,
the
place
is
small
but
welcoming.
We
will
be
back
with
a
bigger
appetite
and
at
an
earlier
time,
so
that
we
get
to
sample
more
of
their
ware.
Thank
you
so
much.
