Review: Sufra

When a place claims their food is authentic, we expect it to be authentic. If we are sold water in a coke bottle, we would definitely have a problem. That's how we can best describe our experience at Sufra by Moshes.
Having lived in the gulf for over a decade, we definitely can't go wrong in how an authentic Chicken Shawarma should taste. The Shawarma at Sufra, priced at Rs.150, almost double of the other Shawarma places, was served in a Roti like bread, definitely not pita. The bread was half cooked and most of it got stuck to the paper that it was served in.

Need we say more? Although the flavours were good, but the bread put us off completely, compelling us to trash more than half of it. Opt for Carters Blue Shawarmas or a roll from Maroosh instead and you won't be disappointed.

Review: Busago

When you've visited all the Thai places in your vicinity and all you get is butter chicken like Thai Curry and watery Khao Suey, you keep your expectations low at a new Thai restaurant.

Much to our surprise, Busago, a tiny little eatery, shines brightly between Thai Ban and Mia Cucina. Divided into an outdoor and indoor seating, this place is always full considering they have hardly 5-6 tables. But waiting is worth it! 

 
Without wasting much time, as soon as we got a table, we got straight to ordering. The menu is very limited, with curries, khao suey, momos and smoothies & juices.We called for the chicken momos, the red thai curry and the khao suey. We were first served six tiny but delicious pieces of momos. They were too tiny and before we could enjoy them, they were over!

Next up were the Curry and the Khao Suey. Two big bowls of curries arrived followed by two big bowls of rice and noodles. That was not it, we were also served a variety of spices alongside to add on to our curries as per our taste. Very impressive and the food was delicious as well! All we missed was a glass of wine, hope they serve us some on our next visit!
