Where to go with Chika

Monday, March 19th, 2007

I’m planning to go out with Chika this week but I still haven’t decided where we should go to eat and she has given me the choice, I always have a hard time choosing food, so after some thought my options are as follows:

1. Choco Bar. They have a tasty chicken sandwich, great pasta and very nice food presentation. I’m in favour of it.
2. Pizza Express. I like their food but I hate their slow service and they don’t have an excuse because it’s hardly busy.
3. Nino. I love their food menu, love their place but I hate the fact it’s busy on weekends.
4. Greens. I love chinese food but I’ve never been to this place so I won’t know how good their food is, until I try it, otherwise it’s a bad idea.
5. Tumbleweed. I’m not a big fan of mexican food but their food is not bad.
6. I love Labanese food better but I don’t know if we should go to Awtar, since both of us are big fans of their food.

That’s about it, I guess, it could’ve been longer.

Pizza Hut shawerma

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

Just finished eating two slices of Pizza Hut’s new shawerma pizza and working on the third. I choose beef as the topping and it was damn tasty, got here in less than 30 min. I really feel like ordering another one because I have an urge to finish the whole pizza all at once, that’s something I’ve never ever done before. What can I say, the taste is truly great.

P.s. I’ll upload the picture of the last slice later and maybe never, yum yum.

Lamb Machoos

Tuesday, March 13th, 2007

I cooked machboos with meat. In spite of my efforts to cook it on low heat, the meat was still not as tender as I would have liked, even the rice wasn’t any better, but I should say everything needed 30 minutes extra.

Great timings

Sunday, March 11th, 2007

Now that I’ve started cooking I don’t have to worry about finishing up on time I mean even if I start at 2:30pm (I leave at 1:45pm) there’s more than enough time for me to get everything done and ready by the time my hubby gets back from work (around 5pm). How can I not like our work timings?

Kabab-ji

I can’t get over Kabab-Ji’s kabab sandwich.

I can cook

Saturday, March 10th, 2007

I can formally say I can cook edible food. I didn’t rely on any recipe books, I only took some tips and hints from family and friends which really helped me tremendously with my cooking. I’ve only started with the easy stuff like cooking rice, chicken zaatar, chicken casseroles, chicken or meat stews with veggies, roast chicken, bechamels, spaghetti bolognese, fried salmon with lemon, chicken alfredo pasta, meat patties, taco with meat and I’m experimenting with other dishes too. I’m still working on cooking chicken machboos but I can’t seem to get it right.

Potato skins

Sunday, February 18th, 2007

I haven’t had my lunch yet. Rami’s having dinner with his co-workers and Hassan fell asleep while I was preheating some soup for his dinner. Now I’m boiling potatoes so I can make potato skins and I might have some beans or taboulah, perhaps both. I’m not sure. All I know is I’m starved now.
