Shami Gourment - Business Bay
Having a good meal while having a busy day can really make a good difference in your mood. I decide to visit Shami Gourment which is very close to my work place. They serve arabiv, middle eastern cuisines and have good meal plans.
The place is quite big and comfortable seating area indoor as well as outdoor. They have open kitchen which is interesting to watch. They have good options of salad, sandwiches, pizza, manakeesh and juices. They have self sevice concept which I have mostly seen in food court, it is good for office workers as they can place order and go and they will be notified when done.
- Individual Mixed Grill
- Avocado Juice
- Half Rotisserie Chicken
We had visited this place for lunch, we opted for combo meals. First item we chose was the Individual Mixed Grill. It includes three different types of kebab which is shush tawouk, mutton seekh kebab, lamb cubes; which is served with grilled vegetables, French fires and salad with khaboos and soft drink. It might sound to much but it's not. I didn't like any of kabab as it tasted very dry and felt it was 2 - 3 days old.
Our second meal was Half Rostisserie Chicken, I just opted because of the picture. When it arrived it was just the same. It had half chicken, French fires, salad, khaboos and soft drink. But again I had to be disappointed, it was neither seasoned nor cooked up to mark. The upper layer of chicken just fell apart which felt bad. Totally disappointed.
Lastly we ordered Avocado Juice, it was thick and had nice consistency. It had good taste and proper amount of sweetness.
Overall I didn't have a great experience not even average. Even the prices are higher compared with other restaurants in the area. Or may be I didn't have good luck to have good food. I might try out something else some other time just to check the food quality.
