Hummus

Little did I know that the revisit would be so soon. It was a very hot day. So hot that we had 4 Lazizas. I like this sparkling fruity malt drink. It did quench some of the thirst. I think.

I think of all the dishes, I like that lone piece of lamb the best! It was well done however, the meat was tender with enough fats to make you feel greasy but I was not in the mood to be too conscious about it. I think it just made me want to come back again for their lamb dishes!

Zac's @ 17 Jalan Pinang

Pari Pari Chicken

This dish certainly reminded me of the Peri Peri Chicken I had at Nandos, KL. It does not come with any sauces, not that it was necessary. The spices provides a kick to anyone who likes hot and spicy food. It grows on you and before you know it, you will start to use your fingers to ensure every part of the chicken is not spared. I loved the accompanying salad and Arabic bread.

This is yummy!

Samosa with minced beef and potato

The curry puff like skin gave way to a tightly packed minced beef and potato. This samosa is quite different from other generic ones and is worth a try.

Harissa (Yemeni's Favorite)

It contains whole meal wheat, lamb and spices cooked and simmered into a paste with a choice of olive oil or honey. Obviously, we chose the olive oil. But beware of this bland sticky paste if you are not into this. I would order hummus the next time as this does not taste savoury nor sweet. It just taste like sticky fake lamb. You savvy?

Prices here are quite affordable and the food here tastes decent which also means that I'll be back for more! The lamb dishes and the shish kebabs have all caught my eyes but, there is only one stomach space. Burp!

Turkish Coffee

Crystal's Turkish Coffee to be exact. This cute Turkish coffee pot was a gift from her aunt and after a lovely lunch, we had coffee to complete this lazy, rainy afternoon.

My dear friend had not intended to pose in this picture but I was quick to snap everything that she was doing.

In case you were wondering, the white stuff on the plate are Turkish Delights. Pop one into your mouth, chew it, then sip into the coffee, then swallow. Not the most brilliant description but this will stop anyone from adding sugar to this mildly fragrant brew.

Not bad I would say, as this is the only way I would have my coffee straight. But i had it with sugar, not with the delights. Thank you Crys!
