A few months back, may na-discover akong restaurant somewhere deep in the residential areas of Al-Khobar. I’ve introduced the place to Ega, Raoul and Ricky last Ramadan. Maaga kasing nag-sara ang favourite naming Flamingo so I thought of showing them this place.
Di naman ako napahiya. In fact, I was happy na pumasa sa discriminating taste nilang tatlo ang food. And when you got “hmmm sarap” from these people, well, masarap talaga yon.
It’s called Mughal – a predominantly Pakistani/Arabic restaurant. I said predominantly kasi yong décor is more of oriental/mid-eastern plus the staff are mostly Pakistani. Ang maganda, they offer a wide variety of entrees kaya whatever you’re craving for, most likely meron sila. Steak, pasta, fish, chicken and all the other oriental favourites namin like fried rice, spring rolls, camaron, at kung ano-ano pa.
In fact they have a small section for fresh sea produce where you can choose crab, lobster or fish and have them cooked the way you want it. It’s pretty much like Marina or Sanbok. Though this place is tops for me kung yong tatlo rin lang ang pag-uusapan.
It’s because of the food. Dito, I asked for grilled hamour in lemon/butter sauce and get exactly what I wanted. Yummy na kahit si Raoul eh hindi masyadong mahilig sa fish, he was nodding his head in approval nong matikman nya. Nothing horrible like what I had in Marina – sinabawang salmon, remember?
Maganda ang ambience nong resto kaya lang may kaliitan yong place. And it gets to be buzzing with clients lalo na kung weekends. How I wish they could provide enough space for a more relaxing, intimate and cozy dinner. Para mas ma-enjoy namin yong mga chikahan at hagalpakan ng tawa over dinner.
At siguro, kami pa lang ang Pinoy na kliyente nila dahil in all the occasions na nandon ako, wala pa akong nakitang ibang Pinoy na kumakain. Mostly mga katutubo (arabo) ang guests nila though eto yong mga disenteng klase who goes there just to enjoy a good dinner.
Ang maganda pa, polite naman ang waiters na mukha ding malilinis sa katawan dahil wala kang maaamoy na makakasira sa appetite mo while they are busy shuffling cutleries and dishes over your table. What’s more, the service is remarkably good.
Plus, mas mura ang food nila compared to most of the favourite spots namin – Flamingo and Applebees included. And Sanbok will pale in comparison pag presyo na ang pinag-usapan.
With all these, siguro makaka-ilang balik pa kami don before we think of moving on to some place new. But for now, Mughal is the place.
