yakuzora • 躍空物語: Ahlan wa Sahlan:.Saudi Arabian cuisines experience

8.3.2011, was a sunny day, also the "Sunny's Day". Birthday boy~ We was doing assignment about Saudi Arabian food & culture lately, the birthday boy wished to try Saudi food, so, here we go. :)

Ahlan wa Sahlan means: WELCOME

Birthday boy had chosen Tarbush Restaurant which is located in Bukit Bintang. Owh this is interesting :). Like the waiter said, not often to see Chinese guests in their restaurant.

(I was in 'back of the screen')

Let's take a look on the environment... That's cool, I love it. Temperature inside was warm, but not hot.

I like these bulbs with different arts on it! Hmm, my camera was unable to perform good in such lightening... Nevermind, the patterns are still roughly can be seen right~

We were there, to celebrate on Sunny's birthday~ (the tallest guy in the group)

Ehhh~ Stop. Saw the pot? If you rub on the pot you will see a muscular man in smokey form came out and ask you to make 3 wishes XD. (just a lil cold joke XP)

The dining part...

The menu.

The plate.

Shisha! (Hookah Tobacco). Oh we haven't try this yet. This is even more harmful to body compared to cigarettes. Boys and girls, don't try to take a risk on your own health.

Foods & beverage were served:

Arabian mint tea. Hmmm, a unique taste. I prefer to drink it with sugar.

The bottom of tea cup! Arabian. (Love this pic SO!)

Yogurt drink. It tasted like original yogurt, but not that sour. Got some milky taste in it. I prefer to drink it with sugar as well, tasted like the yogurt drink we usually have in Malaysia after added with sugar.

Lemonande. Nice. :)

Mezze (Appetizer set).

Included Tabbouleh (Bulgur Wheat Salad), Hummus (Chick Peas), Arabic Salad, and mutton ring in the middle.

This is Moussaka.

Eggplant served with something similar with spaghetti sauces. Um, this is more towards Greek famous dishes. (Heard that original Greek one is super duper nice~)

Kebab (grill chicken & mutton).

The chicken tasted similar with Satay, but without the sweetness of it. I love the sauce~ It's something similar with mayonnaise, with more milky taste in it.

Fatir (Flat bread).

Served with the entire foods.

We scooped all dishes in the flat bread & makan. The combination of all dishes together with the flat bread were quite nice. :) (opps, I shouldn't take it with left hand >..<[by following Islamic table manners])

Our after meal session:

Sharing ghosts and God's stories among each other. We all are have different believes, it's interesting and incredible, unbelievable. (Real stories oh!)
